Boil time

Anyone have any problems with doing a 30 min boil vs a 60? I'm considering it and I will be doing all grain

Boil time depends on your hop schedule. Bittering hops usually need 55-60 minutes.
Also some base malts (Pilsen?) need a 90 minutes boil to boil off DMS ... someone will clear that up for me I'm sure.

From what I understand with all grain you need to boil 60-90 minutes to boil off dms. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Ah yes I forgot about that . I will stick with 60 thank you

Don't forget boil off rate to achieve your intended gravity.

That too, thanks Revvy. I gotta get a good set of notes for when I can finally do an all grain.
