I'm not entirely sure what first wort hops are. Is it when the hops are added to the wort before you start the boil?
Grainfather users: how would you do first wort hops in a Grainfather? Lift the (very heavy) grain basket, chuck the hops in the boiler and sparge onto them? Or would you just add to the boiler after sparge (by which time I find temp is getting up towards boiling point). Does it make a difference?
Thanks.
