• Posted in thread: Late Addition Extract? on 11-06-2010 at 12:02 AM
  For what it's worth, in Brewing Classic Styles John Palmer recommends adding the late addition

  I recently made a partial mash Arrogant bastard clone which contained a pound and a half of

  extract, Brewtime in Hamilton sells fresh bulk LME for about $1.85 a pound. That's cheaper than
  any of t...

  Was it repackaged bulk DME?To date, I have only ever dumped one batch of beer. It was also the
