Alternatively, and more to the point of what you seem to want, "[...] a 30ft cone of Flame dealing 1d6 fire damage per minute left in the spell's duration [...]" is perfectly clear. If there are eight minutes left in the duration it deals 8d6 damage, if there are three minutes left in the duration it deals 3d6 damage. It's the "+1 per caster level" part that is making the damage difficult to determine, and the phrase is unnecessary anyway.
    I think what's meant is 1d6 per minute remaining (let's say 5 minutes for maximum, since a 5th-level druid can get this) + 1 per caster level.

    So, five minutes is 5d6 and one point per caster level is another five. 5d6 + 5 fire damage.
