I've got a recipe that uses a portion of dry wheat extract and I was wondering how Id work out the ratios to replace it with malted wheat?
My still very limited understanding of 'the brew' has me thinking that in order to substitute dry wheat extract with grain, Id have to do an equivalent blend of malted wheat grain and barley to help make up for the sugars that would be the extract powder - say around 50/50?
Would it be ok to go half wheat grain and half light DME?
Im assuming I would just use a conversion tabel like this one http://www.jaysbrewing.com/2011/11/17/lazy-chart-for-converting-dme-lme-grain/ to work out the qty's...
Am i on the right track here or am I leaving something out?
Cheers!
