Ok so in the morning I'm going to create my first extract brew after doing some kits in recent months. I'm wanting to do some extract before going into AG. I've got what is going to be a daft question but I've looked around on here and in the books I've got and I can't see any reference to it.
I've got one of the extract kits from HBC The golden ale kit. There's a link that has a walk through to brew this, as with any in general anyway. The method being 3l x2 to steep and spare the grain and then pour into the boiler. And here is my question.
I've got a buffalo boiler, that I will have filled with 19l to which ill add the 6l from steeping, but am I adding the steeped wort into boiling water or am I adding it to cold water and start the boil from fresh which will chill the liquor?
It's going to be really obvious to everyone else I'm sure but I just want to sanity check.
