Hey guys, I have a couple questions. My first batch is currently about 10 days away from bottling. Though I haven't tasted it, I know that IPAs are my true passion and will be spending the next 10 batches on perfecting the ultimate IPA recipe.
My LHBS has all the ingredients I'll need for a while, but was wondering if it is cheaper/safe to buy in bulk online. Does anyone know of a safe website, or have any ingredient suggestions? I came across the IPA hop thread which is awesome. I'll certainly be using a lot of suggestions from it.
For my first batch I followed a recipe provided by the shop, which called for 6.6lbs of light DME (not sure on the brand). Should I use anything different? Is there a benefit to using DME vs. liquid/syrup ME?
Thanks for your help!
