Wort temps and all

[smiggins55]

In my last couple of brews i've been boiling steeped grain water with hops
for the usual time and cooling the wort down in an ice bath but for
the last brew i thought i would pour the wort in the fermenter straight from
the pot and add cold water to bring down the temp before adding the yeast and
i've gotta say this brew has turned out bl**dy good.I know there's something about a cold
break when cooling the wort down in an ice bath but i'm wondering if this is really necessary

No, not necessary..
