On the advice of the owner of my local brewer's supply store, I'm starting my very first batch using one of Crosby and Baker's True Brew kits. I chose the porter kit. The kit comes with 8oz of molto-dextrin that are supposed to go in to the boil. On the package of molto-dextrin it says "Usage: 4oz per 5 gallons of beer" but the instructions in the box don't say anything about measuring out 4oz of the molto-dextrin; it just says to add it along with all the other ingredients. I can't see why they would include extra ingredients, but I wanted to get an opinion on whether I should add it all or measure out 4oz.
Incidentally, there is a separate 4oz package of dextrin for priming.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
