6oz of DME really is an O.G. of 1030… I’ve always done that but, never actually measured… ;D
This is one of those psychological test questions isn’t it…
Kind of like 100grams of DME in 1L of water is 1.040…
In how much water?
6 oz DME in 2.085 liters = 1.030
www.yeastcalc.com DME calculator for starter wort.
Lmao 2000 ml flask, measured ml on my scale and was 1800ml water to be exact… Still learning and drinking a lot of homebrew…
I do all of my starter wort in quart canning jars. 2.5 oz per jar. 15 min at 15 psi. I do about 14 quarts at a time. Always room temp when I need it.
All for the good this learning about brewing beer!
I always wanted to try that. It’s on my brewing “bucket list”…
I tried it once and will never change. Its brewing lite, if you need a fix but don’t have room. Great way to brew while watching a game or… The best part is having room temp starter wort on hand all the time
Yeah, It would definitely make a last minute decision to brew easier. I like it.
How fast is the train going?
even better, next time you are making beer calculate for an extra 2 gallons of wort. run off into a separate container and dilute to 1.030ish and pressure can. I find I can often just run the extra water through my grain after I get my boil volume and get what I need. free, sterile, room temp starter wort!
That’s a really good idea, I just may have to try that!
