I recently brewed up some of the white house ale (blech!) and in their recipe they gave boil times for the hops and said "add 10 minutes to the boil if using a wort chiller".
Ummm what?
What is the general way that you arrange your boil timing and cooling with the wort chiller? I assumed that you add hops on the regular timing schedule and when your 60min is up, you quickly take the kettle off the boil and start running cold water through the chiller until you are at your desired pitching temp.
Am I wrong? Should I "adjust" boil times one way or the other when using my chiller? Am I applying this device correctly? (prior to the the chiller I used ice and cold water).
Thanks!
