Is it OK to use all DME in a recipe? Perhaps it is, but are there any advantages to using LME, or a combination of LME and DME? Are there particular styles that are best suited for DME vs. LME? I'm still an all-extract brewer for now but the grain mill is on the way so PM is not far off. (Kudos to Beersmith for continuing to offer the great deal on the Barley Crusher!!)
I'm getting ready to brew my first Robust Porter, and although I've posted this recipe once before a short while back (some may recognize its name), I've since given it a full makeover after just having brewed an APA this weekend - my first full-boil (yes, it boiled over! I feel as though I've been initiated) There were a few challenges in this first full-boil that lead to some adjustment of my equipment profile and gave rise to the redo of my porter recipe.
I've posted the recipe here and, as always, I'd appreciate some feedback - don't pull any punches here, I'm here to learn!
