Hi all
I'm following a malt extract recipe (for a California Blonde) and the recipe calls for 3.6 kg of LME.
My LME comes in 1.5 kg cans so I'm 600g short. Can I make up the shortfall with DME? (I happen to have a bag of the stuff for yeasts cultures).
If so, do I just use 600g or is there a conversion?
Or would this compromise the quality of my brew and I'd be better off using less and accepting that my beer will be slightly less strong?
Thanks in advance!
