G'day, gonna try an extract. I've got a few recipes picked out but most state LME but having to mailorder ingrediants I've only got plenty of DME, what is the amount of dry malt to match 1kg of liquid malt? From what I've read of many posts should I add about 500g DME to about 6 or so litres of water bring to the boil and use this as the base for all hop additions. If so should I boil the rest of the malt in water in another pot and add to the fermenter with the other pot or could I just boil all the malt in about 10 - 15 litres of water and add the hop additions? I apologize if this question has been asked a million times but I'm after a rough ratio of DME to water. I'm sure I'll have plenty more questions shortly. Cheers Kingo.
