Although I've been doing BIAB for a couple years, I want to do an extract tomorrow. I've been looking over some of the method details, and don't know the best route. Boil 3 gallons with half the malt (lme), and then add the remainder (dme) at FO, let pasteurize for 10 min, then cool and top off for 5 gallons (according to Palmers book), or boil the entire malt extract bill with the 3 gallons and then cool and top off, as I've seen listed in other recipes. Is it better to top off and then cool further, or to cool and then top off?
Is there a diff in lme and dme for results?
