Has anyone used the LME from homebrewersretail for 100% of the fermentables of any batch they have done? I need to get away from the DME I'm using and I'm wondering if this is a good option?
Or the Muntons Spray Malt DME from Mashing Heads?
Any extact brewers out there with any advice? Thanks.

Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!

Note that Muntons spray malt comes in a 500 g package. It appears that it is meant as an alternative to sugar when topping up the gravity of extract kits.JesseMcG wrote:Has anyone used the LME from homebrewersretail for 100% of the fermentables of any batch they have done?

Another alternative for LME is to go to a local BOP to see whether they will sell you some. Preferably a busier location, so that there is a greater chance of fresher product due to higher turnover. Bring a container with you...
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
I didn't think the Muntons DME fermented well...
I liked the liquid from:

But then I never did an all-extract batch. I'd probably add sugar as well... 10%?
