Then adding the rest of the Malt and Adjuncts at the end of the boil with 5-10 minutes left. I have noticed a difference in taste and color. The recent IPA I made was very light in color.

I'll be happy to report in the future, but I don't see the additional bitterness as problem, but a helper really. Granted you have to plan for it, but in a time when hops are more scarce, it's a positive. :-) I made a partial mash with late addition extract last night.
