I've been thinking about buying one of Muntons' hopped LME cans that are typically 3.3 lbs and brewing a 2.5 gallon batch in my 3 gallon carboy.
Most suggestions I've read are for 5 or 6 gallon batches and typically include an addition of 2 or 3 pounds of DME to boost the gravity and flavor, but I think if I do a smaller batch, the can will be plenty.
Am I right to suggest that the half batch is equivalent to a 5 gallon batch with 2 cans of LME (1 hopped, 1 not)?
