I am considering two different kits as my second brew. I am leaning towards Northern as it has more extract and would be less bitter than the Midwest kit. Right? I am looking for a Diebels Alt clone. Are one of these close to Diebels?
I don't like paying $40 plus shipping for a kit though. Ouch. Thanks for any help.
Midwest:
6 lbs. Amber liquid malt extract,
12 oz. Caramel 10°L
4 oz. Chocolate Malt
3 oz. of hops
With German Ale Smack = $30
Northern:
Specialty Grains
1 lbs. Weyermann Caramunich II
6 lbs. Amber Malt Syrup
1 lbs. Amber Dry Malt Extract
1 oz. Perle (60 min)
1 oz. Perle (45 min)
1 oz. Spalt (15 min)
dry yeast
Safale K-97. Optimum temperature: 59-75° F.
Add bottling sugar and it is almost $40
