It seems to me that adding, say, cascade hops for aroma for the last 2 minutes of the boil is a waste. I propose that to boil the wort with bittering hops only for 60 minutes. Separately I will boil cascade for 2 minutes and strain. I will then add more water to the strained hops and boil for 20 minutes, straining again. This will save 2 oz of hops per 6 gal brew for me. It seems to simple, so I invite observations from you guys who are more knowledgeable than me.
