My brew shop doesn't carry amber dme and I've normally just made due with light dme and playing around with various amounts of grains. Two questions.
1)Is there a ratio I could use to combine light and dark dme to essentially create amber?
2)If a recipe calls for amber dme + grains, am I going to get the same result using (light dme + grains) + grains like I've been doing?
Since I have no reference to whether or not my method is matching the recipe(s), I'm just wondering if this is a close enough alternative or if I could get closer by mixing extracts.
