When I first started home brewing I would add my DME / LME at time intervals according to my recipe BUT sometimes I would add it all at 30min if the times were not on the recipe. Sometimes this resulted in over boiling and a mess on my stove.
It was recently brought to my attention that many people add all their DME at flame out.
My last two brews I have added some DME at the beginning of boil some at 30min and the bulk of the DME at flameout.
- A stout I just did with 7lbs total I added 1lb at 60min, 2lbs at 30min and 4 lbs at flame out -
***I am careful to keep it off the bottom of the kettle***
Can anyone tell me what advantages (if any) for color or flavor or etc might come from adding DME and different time intervals. OR adding the DME into the boil minutes before hops.
