Extract and All Grain Ratio?

wjjohnson · 01-05-2009, 09:14 PM

Just wanted to know the ratio between extract and all grain, what I mean is how much extract DME or LME is equal to 1 lb of all grain 2-row, or vise versa. Say I did an all grain brew and didnt hit my OG that I wanted, I could add some DME or LME but dont want to over do it. Thanks!

This really depends on efficiency. If you are only getting 65% efficiency, it's going to be different than if you get 75% efficiency.

The easiest way to figure things out is to get some brewing software that will do the work for you, or find one of those free online spreadsheets.

1 lb grain = .75 lb LME = .6 lb DME...

Email me (homebrewer_99@yahoo.com) and I'll send you a chart...it won't post here without screwing up the format...

Anyone can email me for a copy.
