Thread back from the dead!
I doubt very much that malt extract is going to change the flavor of
the beer unless it's dark malt extract and you used pilsner malt or extract
as the base.
DME which is mostly maltose is not fermentable by zymomanas and corn sugar
is, so its extra insurance against infection.
