I have read on this forum about cheap kits that substitute corn sugar for malt extract. but.....
Austin Home Brew has a Pliny the Elder kit, that includes in the extract, mini-mash, and all grain options, one pound of corn sugar. What's the purpose of this addition of a 100 % fermentable sugar with no flavor value to the wort? Has it something to do with alcohol percentage or getting a lower SG?
BTW, their cost is a whopping $112.00!!!!!!
