I know there is a s**t load of info on the ol honey beer but this is kinda off the track. I used a tin of baverian wheat, 1 kg of wheat dry malt, safwheat k97 yeast and will dry hop some hersbruckers.
I'm going to bulk prime with the honey and its seems to be ticking along quite nicely at 22C. Question is...
I wanted a really malty beer and was told that all I had to do was get up to a kilo of fermentable sugars for a standard full strength beer. Thats why I chose a 1kg of malt.
Is this true ?? and if I had of added say a kilo of brew blend instead and then added some malt would this have been heavier (higher alcohol)?? I'm just a little confused on how much sugars are allowed and have I made an F up by only using malt?
