Im kinda new at brewing still, all my brewing has been from Brewer's best kits.
In these kits they have always had a liquid and a dry malt extract.
I dont remember the exact sizes, but thenormal size liquid extract can and maybe 1lb dry?
Anywho, in the future I would like to mess around with extract brewing and experimenting with new beers and recipes you dont get in kits.
Is there any reason why I cant make all my experimental beer with dry extract?
The liquid seems to be more of a mess for me and heavier if I get it shipped.
If I find a recipe online that asks for a mix of dry and liquid, can I get an equivelent dry that will match any liquid they ask for?
Im doing kits now, but (unless im misunderstanding) I see myself taking yeast, dry extract, hops and possibly minor grains as described by others home recipes as my next step in brewing.
thanks for any info
