extract amarillo IPA recipe advice

[IsonAd]

Need some advice on a recipe I found on another site. All Amarillo IPA. Sounds delicious from reviewers comments but am keen to try with a smaller boil. Due to stupid height of kitchen cabinet I can only fit an 8l pot. So am really limited to a 6ish litre boil below recipe I think is for full boil but also read that people did a 3g boil.

Your IBU's will be well down on the recipe.

Perhaps a better option might be to split it into 2 boils as a split batch to get them up.
