Ive made a couple of batches so far but i have a couple of questions again.
Say a recipie calls for 3-4 pound of liq. malt extract and 2 pounds of dry LME. What would happen if you doubled the LME? Would it just increase the fermentable sugar level and therefore incresae the alch. content? Im still kinda confused about what components in a recipie do what to the brew.
I know there is some enzamatic part to all of this. But what is the funnction of the enzymes and dont i destroy them with the wort boil?
I know this is basic but my books have not arrived yet so i just gotta bug you all.
