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 I have:

Safale US-05 Ale Yeast

  • 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 bagitems:

Priming sugar

  • 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.

How should I determine a ratio between malts?
