Im brewing a NEIPA here coming up, and I was going to a whirlpool addition. As I have never done a whirlpool addition, I have a few questions.
1. I have read that a whirlpool addition to start right at flame out. Is that correct?
2. After I do the whirlpool addition I have a stir paddle that I will get going then let it stand for 10 minutes. BEFORE I start my chilling, this poses a question. This obviously slows down the cooling process by about 15 minutes. Should I have my immersion chiller in while the whirlpool? Or should I just not worry about it and start chilling after 10-15 minutes.
