I'm getting ready to do my first batch and I have chosen to use Mr. Beers american pale ale HME. What I need to know is how much DME should I use? Is there a standard volume/DME ratio? I'm only doing a 2 gallon batch to start.
As far as I know, which isn't very far, 1 lb of DME per gallon will get you to 1.044ish for your OG, I'd recommend just getting an ingredient kit though. Ok, two questions which might both be silly. Are you also planning on getting hops? and, What is HME?
and said:HME is hopped malt extract. prehopped syrup
