I'm doing an extract brew of an IPA that requres 1lb of Crystal 40L malts to steep. I wasn't paying attention and let my steep get up to 175 degrees for about 5 -8 min... I read you shouldn't exceed 180 degrees. I still have 9 LBS of gold LME to add. How much did I ruin this beer? Is it going be have a low ABV? Did I destory it!?!?!?!?!?!
