I just purchased a 6 Gal carboy Brewers kit from my LHBS yesterday. For my first brew I'm going to try the Coopers Brewmaster Wheat Beer kit. My LHBS sold me a 2.2 lb bag of Dextrose to use with the kit. After reading several posts on this form I've decided not to use the Dextrose but go with a Dry Malt. The Kit recommends the Coopers Light Dry Malt but I noticed on the Coopers web site that they also have a Wheat Malt Extract. Has anyone used this extract with the Wheat kit? Any recommendations?
I've also decided to not use the 7g of yeast that the kit comes with but use a 11.5g packet of another brand. Any ideas of which brand of yeast I should go with? I've seen several different brands and not sure which way to go.
