I don't have much time for brewing these days, I've always been an all grain brewer except for playing around with LME a few times and I didn't really didn't like the flavor. I'm also trying to lose a few pounds, so I'm going to try some extract IPA's figuring that lots of hops will to some extent cover up the extract flavor. I've also noticed my LME brews all seem to finish around 1.020. I'm going to try strictly DME +steeping grains this time, maybe add some Demerara sugar to bring the FG down, 30 minute boils, and lots of flameout and dry hops, fermented in a corny keg and closed transferred to the serving keg. Any ideas of DME combinations (use some munich DME?) and favorite hop combinations would be welcome.
