My next batch is going to be a german pilsner, and according to promash I should wind up with an OG of 1.050. I want to boost that number to be a little closer to 1.060 using an extra pound of DME. How much extra bittering hops would I need to counteract the extra sugar? The recipe is below.
1 lb Carapils (steeped for 30 minutes at 155)
6 lbs of pale LME
1 oz Halltertau (60 minutes)
1 oz Hallertau (10 minutes)
.5 oz Saaz (flavor)
I have an extra 2 oz of Hallertau that I can use if I need them, but I don't know how much extra to use. Input is appreciated.
