Does anyone out there know if dry malt extract (spray malt or DME) is usually boiled before it is extracted to its dry form? i.e has it already gone through the hot break process? I was told by my HBS guy that it had already been boiled, but I find I get a large protein foam from most DME when I add it to the kettle, usually in the last 10 mins of the boil. In particular, wheat DME really foams up. I would have thought that if it had been pre-boiled that I wouldn't get this reaction.
