King Ruddager Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Safety first - better drink that one sitting down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 So thats the Brew A beer with 300g Dextrose. The only thing the dex will do in that brew is make it a little stronger; about 1% stronger. If that is what you are after then it is fine and is probably the best way to do it. Make sure you pitch enough yeast [rightful] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daves15 Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 is there a rule on how much yeast you need vs fermentables in brew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daves15 Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 how much more yeast should i pitch with addition of the dextrose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Work out your expected OG and then check out the yeast calculator on the MrMalty website. I haven't got access to it at the moment but someone else may be able to help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
