I'm using a True Brew ingredient kit to brew and bought and extra can of dark malt which is 3.3 lbs. This is my 4th batch of beer only, and the first three have seemed to come out a bit thin using just the ingredients in the box. In Charles Papazian's homebrew book he says to always use at least 6 lbs of malt extract per 5 gallon batches. I was wondering how much you guys use. Is 2 cans of dark malt extract too much? Or can I brew this bad boy already and not have to worry about it?
