I purchased a kit yesterday that I thought was a dry Ale
I now realize it's a low calorie / low carbohydrate lager.
It uses s-23 yeast and I don't think I can maintain a low enough temp for it.
I also don't really want a diet beer
My first thought was to see if I can exchange it.
Then I thought maybe I can experiment and learn from this.
So I am thinking of getting some S-05 yeast and dry hopping it.
I just don't know what and how much I should use for an extra fermentable.
DME, LME or simple sugar ?
some info I found on the web after I got home:
OG: 1.0360 - 1.0368, FG: 1.0020 - 1.0026, Yeast: Saflager S-23, IBU's: 9
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Cam
