Hi gang, new to brewing. Today I brewed my first beer that wasn't from a kit. Not confident enough to start all graining just yet, so I tried LME. I wanted a pale beer so I plumped for a light LME. The problem is that my wort looks very dark (see pic below). Any suggestions as to why this is? Here's my ingredients for 10 litres of beer :
250g crystal malt steeped at 67*C for 45mins.
1.5kg light liquid malt extract boiled for 60mins.
10g Chinook hops 60mins
5g Citra hops 15mins
15g Citra hops at flame out.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
