Just been reading the excellent post on "Moving to all grain brewing for thirty bucks" by NickJd on this forum. Its a great post with lots of information but I have a couple of questions.
1. So when you bring it back to the boil after squeezing out as much as you can from the bag do you then put your hops back in for the time the recipe suggests that you may be following? Eg you might throw in a bag of hops for 20 mins then another type for 10 mins whilst boiling the entire time?
2. When he pours the wort into the fermenter he doesn't mention adding any sugar or malt. Is this just a kit extract thing we have to do? My understanding is that the All grain method is just replacing the kit extract we would use but we still need to add sugar/dextrose malt extract like we would with a kit?
