Hey all! Seems like a great community here. I didn't see my issue specifically in the stickies, so I'd like to post it here
Through a combination of unexpected visitors and a propane tank going empty, I never got my wort to a complete boil.
I would say that I had the hop pellets going for about 45 minutes between 180 and 200 F. I set the burner down because I was afraid of a boil over. When I got back I kicked them up and got the wort to about 205 or a little higher and my flame went out...lol
I had to make a decision...so I cooled it, pitched my yeast at 75 and put it away
I thought no big deal, but after poking around here it seems like the boiling is a pretty big deal.
The recipe kit was a combo malted extract and grains if that helps
Is it ruined? Should I boil it tomorrow and re pitch yeast? Let it ride? What should I do?
