So, recently i've developed a enjoyment for homebrewing. however, most of my production is mainly enjoyed by friends and co-workers.
I'm trying to think of a ways to brew a batch for myself that'll have a lower ABV. I don't have any health problems or anything like that. I'm just sensitive to alcohol and one serving (eg: 355 ml can) leaves me a little dizzy and reluctant to finish the ONE can. hehehe
SO, can i reduce the amount of alcohol in an extract batch by simply reducing the amount of dextrose the recipe calls for?
For example, a coopers kit usually calls for a kilo of dextrose and the end result clocks in at 5% i think. if i reduce the dextrose to 200 grams (for example), will that reduce the alcohol without compromising TOO MUCH on flavour?
