How should I determine a ratio between malts?
I am new to the home brewing community and have a question regarding some malts I am using on my next batch.
After using a few beer kits from Brewers Best, I am taking a spin at trying to gather my own ingredients to brew. I have:
- 1 pound of Briess Pilsen DME
- 1 pound of Briess Bavarian Wheat DME
- 1 pound of Briess Carapils crushed malt
- 1 ounce of German Hallertau hop pellets
- Safale US-05 Ale Yeast
Additional items:
- Muslin mesh bag
- Priming sugar
My concern is how do I ratio my usage of Bavarian Wheat DME and Pilsen DME? Should I even mix those two DME and choose one and mix it with a rice syrup solid instead?
I'm going for a crisp tasting ale with body and not too over powering with the hops.
