I am getting ready to start a 2.5 gallon extract recipe with 8 oz of steeping grains. This is only my second brew so I am still trying to figure this all out. I have read that the volume of water is important when steeping and I think the ratio is 1 gallon per pound of grains.
My question is, can I steep the 8oz of steeping grains in 1/2 gallon of water for 30 minutes and then simply add the "steeped water" to the 2 gallons heating up in my boil kettle?
