Boil time question

Post by HardcoreLegend »

I am working on a recipe for a 3.5 gal batch of ectract based American Amber Ale. Because I am doing a smaller batch size, i was thinking of doing a 45 minute boil. I plan on using Cascade hops for that American Amber taste. The IBU's in my theoretical recipe are right where I want them with a 45 minute boil. What do you all think?

There I was minding my own brew and here comes a storm right at 45min into the boil. I throw in my moss and shut it down making it inside the garage just in time for an ugly wind strom.

It seems fine, a little cloudy and under hopped, but fine.
