Guys,
I have already looked through the forum for an answer to my question but can seem to find what I am after...
I am doing mainly K&K and at the moment have a JSAA I got form my LHBS. It came with a can of Muntons Blonde. As my addition of 'sugar' I usually use dry ingredients (Dextrose, Coopers BE1 or 2 or the Kit provided by the HBS). For the first time I have been given 1kg of Liqiud Malt with no dry ingredients stated in the recipe.
My question with respect to the liquid malt is....do I just soften it in its container in a bath of boiling water and add it into the fermenter (along with the can of extract) as you would do with normal dry ingredients or do I have to boil it first? If so, how do I achieve this and what advantages would I get out of boiling or what problems could I cause by not boiling first?
Sorry if this has been asked before but some wisdom and experience would be welcome...
Cheers
