Hi all- I am wondering if anyone has ever had issue when using DME instead of LME? I've had two batches recently come out somewhat salty and just gross. Without boring you with all the details the most recent was a Indian brown ale DFH clone. I followed the recipe from Sam's book to a T. The OG/FG came out. After bottling it is not carbonated as much and is salty. The only thing I can think went wrong was that I didn't prepare a starter (last time for that). Any advice or input is appreciated.
