Are you planing on boiling any crushed crystal grains.
Also, how long are you going to boil them.

I brew a grumpys Theakstons Old Peculiar kit taht stipulates the grains are boiled fro 20min...

Excellent results so far...

As for tannin extraction, my guess is that you will not notice the tannins extracted from such a small quantity (250-1000g) of specialty grains in a 23 litre batch
...like I said. Especially for a quick boil.
 
I boiled the grains in my Grumpys Kilkenny copy for 20 mins and it was great - it got a silver medal in the Qld comp.

- snow
 
SNOW
Was it a boil or steep?
