Good Day!
I'm brewing a PM later today and have 2 quick related questions about my Malt Extract addition.
I ordered a Moose Drool clone kit from AHS and I usually select DME, however I must have forgot to change my selection and I received LME instead.
To help here are my ingredients:
2 LB base malt
1/2 Lb Choc Malt
1/2 Crystal
1 OZ Black Patent
In the past I've done my mash and added some of the DME and left the rest for a late addition in the boil. Since this is LME in one big plastic tub I don't want to fool around and split it up.
Is there any reason why I shouldn't just add all the LME at for the last 15 minutes of my boil? Will I get enough fermentable sugars for hop utilization out of my Mash?
Also, related is I have to add a 1Lb of Malto Dextrin. This can go in for the last 15 minutes of the boil right?
To sum up, should I add my 5 1/2 Lb of LME at the beginning or late into the boil? How about the Malto Dextrin?
Thanks in advance,
Brad
