Jan 4, 2018 at 23:11 comment added Evil Zymurgist @glifchits idk. The increase of the OG will be the same increase in the FG from dextrin since it doesn't ferment.
Jan 4, 2018 at 23:07 comment added glifchits Thanks! Is 2 lb of maltodextrin too much, even if it brings me to the OG and FG target?
Jan 4, 2018 at 20:51 comment added Evil Zymurgist @glifchits then yes use dextrin. But FG above 1.020 are usually considered "sweet"
Jan 4, 2018 at 20:49 comment added glifchits Perhaps I should clarify -- I want to increase OG and FG without raising ABV. Anything I could try besides adding a ton of maltodextrin?
Jan 4, 2018 at 19:33 comment added Evil Zymurgist @glifchits increase base malt extract or add corn sugar to adjust your OG. Shouldn't need any Cara malts either with extract. They are already a good blend of sugars for most beers.
Jan 4, 2018 at 18:26 comment added glifchits Do you recommend getting rid of maltodextrin, or are you saying definitely don't do 2 lb? Any other recommendations for increasing OG/FG, or should I stick with the recipe I have and ignore the target OG/FG that I'm trying to clone?
