Great, I've heard that adding DME while it's still boiling may effect the colour but I don't think it will make much of a difference.

Hi all, thankfully to this forum I did few kits already and Im happy with the results, now I want to try making it from scratch...sort of. I'm not able to do all grain right now but I did some reading and a lot ppl like me doing partial mash on stove top. Sadly, resources on the topic are very...

Update. It's been 16 days since I've bottled this beer and it turned out great. Very light and refreshing, smells zesty and has citrusy aftertaste. Instead of orange I've used peel from 2 lemons and 2 limes. They sat in 100ml of vodka for a week. I could use more definitely as it's noticeable...
