Quick question. I have had experience with brewing wines and meads, but this is my first beer attempt. To make things easy, I decided to start off with a canned extract.
I am a little confused on just how many cans for a 5 gallon batch, however. Most of the cans I have been looking at come in 3.3 pound sizes (or there abouts.)
As far as I can make out, you can use 1 can, but you also have to dump in a lot of corn sugar to make up for it, but you really should use 2 cans (or 6 pounds?)
Could someone clarify this for a newbie? Thanks!
