I am making a Cream Ale as follows following a NB recipe...
0.75 lbs Honey Malt
0.25 lbs Biscuit
6 lbs of Pilsen LME
1 oz Cluster Hops
The local store did not have LME Pilsen but they did have DME. In switching from 6 lbs of LME to DME, I bought 4 lbs according to suggested advice. I knew I should have bought more and if I had extra...so be it. I now know I should have bought 5 lbs.
Should I brew as is with 4 lbs of DME? Scale down the volume? OR wait to get back to the LHBS?
