I’m looking at some “extract” recipes. I don’t know how much it matters to use the actual brands of extract that these recipes are calling for. What variance in flavor or quality do you get between Alexander’s light LME versus Breiss’? Or Cooper’s light LME?

Then again, if don't use the exact recopies you really can't you brewed XYZ Ale, can you?

What happens if particular malts are no longer available?
 
just a light extract is pretty much all base malt, It will all pretty much taste the same. feel free to use which ever you prefer or is available
