Hello,
I am a new home brewer. Have been wanting to get started for a while and my fiance got me a kit for christmas.
I just had a couple of questions before I get started.
With the kit my fiance was given a Muntons Beer kit(Can) and was also given a 1 pound bag of Dry malt extract and a 1 pound bag of Rice Syrup Solids.
I guess my first questions is when do I add the Dry malt extract and syrup solids. Do I just mix it in when I am mixing up the general wort?
Also I know that it kind of depends on the taste I want but for starting out should I just add all of the bags or just a few cups of each?
The last question I had was about the sugar that is supposed to be added when bottling. Is there a certain kind that needs to be used, how much and where are some good places to purchase?
Thank you for your help
