I've recently made a few batches of beer from complete kits but now I am experimenting with different ingredients. My biggest question is this- if I make a 5-6 gallon batch what is a good general rule as to how much malt extract I should use? I made a batch from hopped malt extract 3.3 lbs along with 3.3 lbs of unhopped malt extract. I have not tasted it yet. Is 3.3 lbs of UME equal to approximately 1 kilo of sugar? Thanks for the help.
