    Tips on breaking up dry extract exposed to humidity

    In an effort to save money a while back, I bought a 50lb bag of dry extract. Since I was doing partial mashes at the time, I figured that should make for 8-10 batches of beer, certainly capable under my routine at the time so that I'd use it up fairly quickly. Naturally I wound up moving to a...

    Malt roots/sprouts in mash?

    Scottish ale - crystal malts vs. caramelization

    So, trying to put together a scottish ale recipe and it appears there are two well-used ways to get that nice, malty flavor required. The first is to use one or a couple kinds of crystal malt (just 60L, or a combo of 40L and 120L for instance). The second is to just mash a base malt with an...
