My favorite recipe is an English ESB which I generally make with Safale-05. I was going to brew tomorrow, but I’m all out of 05 and have packages of Nottingham, Bry-97 and Belle Saison on hand. Would any of these work? Thanks.

I have a good recipe for an ESB using DME, my supplier is currently limited on his supply of DME. I am wondering if I can substitute LME in place of the DME? Is there a conversion ratio substituting one for the other? Thanks.
