I'm trying to gather up the ingredients for a Traquair House Ale clone, and I'm finding that my LHBS doesn't carry the same brand names that are called for in the recipe. Are all of the top brands pretty much interchangeable?
For instance, the recipe calls for M&F light DME, yet my LHBS offers either Munton's Extra Light DME or Royal Light DME. Will one of these suffice, or do I need to mail order.
Also, the recipe calls for John Bull light malt syrup, but the LHBS carries a generic light LME. Am I safe in using the stuff I can get locally?
TIA
