I have a double stout that I am planning, and was considering a 90 min boil to help get my gravity up, and potentially to get the most out of my hops. I believe that a longer boil time will increase the polymerization of the alpha acids, creating a greater bittering effect, but what else does this do? So I guess my inquiry has two parts
One, what impact will an 90 min boil have on my hops?
Two, any critiques of using various boiling times for your bittering hops?
