I am currently doing 1 and 5 gallon batches. I play with the 1 gallon batches until I find one I like. Then I brew it as a 5 gallon batch. I am jumping up to extract brewing with specialty grains. My question is, most recipes are for 5 gal batches. If it says steep the grains for 45 minutes. When converting to gallon batches, since the grain bill is only a fraction of the 5 gallon batch, should I steep the grains for the full 45 minutes or cut the steeping time down to around 12 minutes? Thanks.
