So after reading a few articles about malt extracts I had a question about which is better, liquid or dried malt extract. The articles were mentioning that over time LME's flavors can change as proteins breakdown and made it sound like DME does not suffer from these aging changes. However in the process of completely driving off all the moisture from DME aren't the flavors also changed possibly even dramatically?
It seems (to me at least) given the choice between a fresh liquid extract vs dried the liquid would win hands down. However, after poking around a little I haven't been able to find a comparison/ recommendations about which to use. Does anybody have any advice/ or have read any articles comparing the two?
Thanks!
