5 us gallons. It has one 6.6 lb can of malt inside.

Ok. And do i need add sugar (and how much)?

You don't have to add sugar. That's the malt. You could add more sugar to make a stronger beer but it's up to you. Is this your first batch?

Ye, it's my first batch. (Sorry for my english, im from Europe )

I suggest you don't add sugar, except at the bottling stage.

the 6pound can of malt extract doesn't fully ferment, so your beer will have body and mouthfeel.
if you add sugar, it does ferment fully and can thin the body of the beer too much.

Its best to stick to a good recipe the first few batches, and then with experience you'll know how to make changes to a recipe or design your own.
