I am a brand new brewer, first batch is in the CB. I was listening to an Episode of Brew STrong I think it was about using extract kits and John Palmer was also on the show. He said worst thing you can do to an extract kit is boil the crap out of it. Of course all extract kits that are unhopped say to boil 45 min to 1 hour. I didn't quite understand what to do when you have several hop additions to do for an hour a long with a grain steep. So if you steep your specialty grains an then you bring to boil should you add just 1/3 of the liquid extract and do the hop additions per the instruction schedule and add the balance of the liquid extract with about 10 minutes left in the boil? Just curious.
thank you,
Corey
