I have a recipe calling for 6lbs lme but i bought 5 pounds of dme instead. will it have a noticeable effect if i use it all instead of the 4.8lbs that is 80% of the lme bill
yeah that sounds about right but i heard that 1lb lme=.8 lb dme. so 6lbs=4.8 dme. but i have 5 do i really have to measure out 4.8 or can i just add it all?
Chuck it all in, don't bother measuring for .2lbs. I doubt whoever measured out the 5lbs was careful enough for it to make much of a difference anyway. Enjoy your extra .1% alcohol.
