Additional Ingredients Required:

For fermentation you will also require 1kg of dextrose. As an alternative to dextrose consider Liquid Brewing Sugar to reduce the sweet finish and improve the mouthfeel of your brew.

Liquid Malt will give you a smoother mouthfeel and more body and this is a flexible kit that will work well with a few styles of liquid malt extract depending on the finish you want.

Try a Black Rock Blonde Liquid Malt Extract which is well suited to the dry finish or for a lighter colour and more delicate malt character use the Ultra Light LME.
