do you mean boilovers???
Kai said:If I'm about to have a boilover then I do the logical thing and turn the heat down. What I want to know is what you guys with your squirt bottles do when you're starting to boil over? Do you sit there for 60 minutes squirting the wort rather than turning down the heat, and do you end up with a negative evaporation rate?

"The bittering hops can be added either as a 'first-wort' style (when there's sufficient spargings in your boiler to start heating it) or just as the wort comes to the boil (this will minimise boil overs too.)"
Not always true as the hops create a nucleation point and can exascerbate the boilover. Much better to wait ubtil the foam head has settled down.
