Hey
Sorry if this has already been covered, but I've had a search for the last 10min and can't find the answer. I thought I wrote it down in my notes somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.
On friday I'll attempt my first extract & grain recipe, and just have a quick question. I thought i read somewhere that after steeping the grains and boiling the liquid, you HAVE to add your malt extract (I'll be using 3kg for my recipe) to the boiling runnings before adding your hops.
Is this true? Do you have to add all the LME before adding the hops, or do you boil the hops with only the steeping liquid and add the LME at flameout?
Cheers, Sponge
