Question: While brewing beer using nothing but canned liquid malt extracts(which is hopped) how long should you let it!.!.
boil after everything dissolves!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Since the extract is hopped you do not need a long boil!. Boil the extract-wort for twenty or thirty minutes!. Make sure it is a good rolling boil!. This will do the sanitation of the wort and create a hot break to clear and improve the flavor of your beer!.
If you continue to brew I suggest not using pre-hopped extracts!. They usually do not tell you about how it was processed!. This limits your knowledge and thus control of the style of beer you are brewing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would say about 90 mins!. I doesn't hurt and I think you need the time for conversion of the sugars so that the yeast can metabolise it easily!. It wouldn't hurt to add dried hops as well- add them during the boil for bitterness or when it is cooling for extra hoppinessWww@FoodAQ@Com

2 or 3 minutes at a roiling boil will do the trick!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
