I got a starter kit that included the ingredients of my first batch(Cooper's 1 can prehopped pilsner, 1 can light malt extract, 3/4 cup corn sugar). The instructions say dissolve the ingredients 2 liters boiling water or hot tap water, then mix with 20 liters cold.
-Now, I'll boil my water for sanitation sake, but should it be below any temp before adding the prehopped can?
-Will wort chilling be necessary or is adding 2 liters hot to 20 liters cold sufficient?
-Should I plan on moving this to a secondary? Is that necessary with these beginner kits?
-What is in these cans? Are there hop pellets mixed in or is it cooked into a syrup?
Thanks for any help! I promise to move up the brewer food chain soon.
