This is my second attempt at this kit, really enjoyed the first one I did (only used Coopers BE2) but this time I am going to add some saaz hops to it as well as swapping the yeast to saflager s-23. I was going to boil 10g saaz for 15mins then 20g for 5 minutes.
I can't decide what fermentables to use though, I have got 500g extra light dme as I was going to use 1kg dextrose and 250g of the extra light. I'm sure I read somewhere using less dme is better so it keeps the taste clean so not to be as malty. The other part of me is thinking to order another bag of dme and using 1kg in total with no extra dextrose! What would you guys suggest?
