Hi,
I need to make some starters and my LHBS doesn't carry DME of any kind. In fact no where around here (vancouver, bc) does. Aside - If you know of somewhere please tell me!
Conventional wisdom seems to be to use Light Dried Extract, but the lightest coloured thing he's got is liquid wheat extract.
Is there any reason this won't work well for starters? I will pour off most of the wort and just pitch the yeast slurry, so I don't anticipate any discernible wheat character making it into my brew. Similarly would liquid Pale Malt Extract (10 SRM) be any worse/better?
Thanks!
