So here is what I need.

6lb 10oz Coopers Wheat Extract, liquid
Boil 3° 35


Serously? So twp 3.3 don't make it.

So can I get a six pound and make up the 10oz with a dme or go only 6.6. or just buy the extra and waste the rest?
 
LME does not store well after opened.

Make up the difference with DME. DME stores well as long as you keep moisture away from it. I keep mine in the freezer. I double bag it in ziplocks.
 
6 lb 10 oz is (as near as makes no difference) 6.6 lbs. There is a difference of less than 1/2 oz, which won't make a detectable difference.
Just use the 6.6 lbs.

-a.
 
Ahhh yeah. IM kind of stupid:eek:

By the way I am assuming that wheat extract is unhopped unless specified?
