2010年8月28日 · LME: min. 78 % to 81 % DME: 70 to 75 % Reading these charts am I correct in assuming that the LME will ferment better than the DME. It is the first time I used DME as the primary extract, and would like to know if it is just a coincidence that my fermentation is stuck, or if in the future I should use LME instead. Thanks; Sean

2015年5月22日 · Adding LME or DME results in some non-fermentables being left behind and a higher FG. All depends on what you are looking for in your final product. One word of warning, I have added corn sugar at the end of a boil to a couple of batches and ended up with a bit of a hot alcohol taste in the beer.

2012年10月25日 · By adding the bulk of the LME at the end of the boil, you keep the wort less sugar-dense, more like a comparable AG batch, and decrease the corresponding maillard reactions and browning of the wort. If you've ever boiled down first runnings (say, like when making a Scottish ale), you can see the difference when you start with a more sugar-dense ...

2008年1月30日 · Sorry to dig this thread up but I was looking on a quick reference for how much LME to use for a starter and found it. Assuming that the weight to volume conversions in the post above are correct (1oz LME = 0.125 cup), 0.625 cups (5oz) of LME for one a 1 pint (2 cups) starter seams like way to much. Plugging that into Beer Smith gives an OG of ...

2012年9月8日 · It calls for 8.6 lb of light LME and 1 lb of Munich LME. First off I wanted to try substituting DME for the LME, so I plugged the original recipe into Beersmith and made a modified version that looked ok with the numbers (using the 80% DME/LME ratio in my calculations). Then I looked into Munich.

2025年3月6日 · In my limited experience with LME, Williams Brewing (HBT sponsor) was able this - and if shipping from them to me was 1-2 days, I would likely use their LME products more often. The usual approach (full volume boil, part of the 'extract' at the start of the boil, the rest at the end of the boil) will help .

2018年5月13日 · Now since LME contains water, it is likely more suspect to aging effects and spoilage than a totally dry product such as DME. Since we don't get both products directly from the source the same day or even within a month from when they are produced, differences in aging/spoiling effects will become apparent.

2015年1月21日 · You would need about 20% more LME than DME, by weight. Trying to measure by volume can be very inaccurate. LME has about 37 points per gallon, while DME has about 44. It will also be a good idea to use a pitch rate/starter calculator. Just making a certain size starter may not propagate the number of cells you need for your beer.

2012年7月4日 · (2) 3.3lb cans of Munton's wheat un-hopped LME. 1 1/2 oz. Willamette Hops,and 1 oz. of McCormick's lemon extract added at the 6 day mark,via the airlock hole. It turned out,light,lemoney,and refreshing.Wonderfull Lawnmower Beer.

2010年2月4日 · Yes, many stores have bulk LME for sale. So, you can buy a pound or two (or 20). The canned LME isn't nearly as good, in my opinion. I've had to buy cans when I needed a specific kind of LME, but my preference is by far to use DME. Many recipes can use DME instead of LME, and will taste fresher than using canned LME.
