Racer 5 Clone Question

[Graceh]

Aloha Folks,
I just got hold of the BYO magazine with over 150 clone recipes and decided to brew the Racer five clone.

I am doing the extract with grains version...I've got all the substitututes but it says...
"Steep crushed grains in 1 gallon of water @ 152 degress for 45 mins" Does this meant I have two pots? One for everything else? combine at the end?

Any advice would be great!

Thank you and Aloha

All you need to do is stick the crushed grains in a muslin bag and steep them at 152 for the 45min duration. Then you remove the grains and bring the wort to a boil and add your extract and hop additions according to your recipe.
