How long for boiling turkey bones for stock to immediately then turn it into a soup? I’m seeing anywhere from 2 hours to like 15 hours when I do a search for that…

if you want to clarify it, cook it longer, skim the smutz off and keep adding water and boiling it down, slowly. the flavor intensifies and the broth is clearer - if that is a consideration.
like making a good phọ broth, you want lots of flavor, yet a clarified soup.
also, add your seasoning veg in mesh bags. keeps your broth clear.

I’m probably gonna go as simple as possible, so just boiling what bones we have, taking them out, and then adding in what we want in our soup (potatoes, green beans, onion, left over turkey…). So clarified is not really an issue, if that makes sense? It’ll be immediately turned into soup.

I’m a lover of using pressure cookers for broth, all the flavor remains in the broth, including the aromatics, and it’s far quicker to get a really high-quality product (I make great broth in 40 minutes from a whole chicken) if you pressure cook the ingredients for 2 hours, that would be pretty good stuff I’d say.
