Hi All!
I attempted my first brew last night, a James Squire Amber Ale. The kit came with a tin or Black Rock malt extract, a pouch of Mangrove Jacks blonde larger malt extract, two sachets of yeast and copper tun hops... and two set of instructions.
One set said to put sugar in, the other did not make any reference to sugar at all. I put a kilo of Coopers brewing sugar in with the brew. I spoke with guy at work who is an experienced brewer and he told me the pouch malt extract would have had enough sugar for the brew. I fear I have overdone the sugar and potentially ruined my brew?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!
