Hi folks. First timer.
I have a question my local home brew supplier was unable to answer. The recipes I am able to find list lbs. of liquid extract and I am more readily able to measure pints. Typically, in measuring water-based liquids, "A pint's a pound." I imagine, though, that malt syrup is significantly heavier than that by maybe half again. I suspect that this varies from one company's product to another's, but I'm wondering whether anyone has a general rule of thumb.
How much does a pint of malt syrup weigh?
Thanks,
Hamish
