So I am brewing for the first time with a 10 gallon mash tun and kettle out in the garage. (yippy )
I undershot my preboil gravity by a bit- 1.035 vs 1.042 and was going to add a little DME to compensate. I was digging through my stuff and found this, liquid brewing enhancer. I got it February when Brew Demon did that special where you had to cut up a LBK.
Anyway, the ingredients say "maize starch and water". It adds ABV and body according to the label.
Is this basically canned sugar? Would it be better to add this or the DME?
Quick response would be good. I'm boiling now.
