I'm a bit new to extract brewing and am a bit confused about the following recipe.
It says it requires:
6 lbs. amber malt extract
Does this refer to 6 lbs. of amber spray-malt, amber liquid malt extract or either?
Thanks!

There is ambiguity there. Someone maybe could do the maths and estimated the SG for you? I imagine the difference between 6lbs liquid and dry to be noticeable. Otherwise I'll agree with BrianV and say its liquid.– Another Compiler ErrorFeb 28, 2014 at 17:54

If I remember right BYO designates dried as dried and where not designated it is implied as liquid.– brewchezFeb 28, 2014 at 18:22

I agree that it is probably liquid. But @ brewchez, BYO does designate liquid/syrup and dry in most recipes: example from 1997. I note that OP's recipe also does not state what kind of crystal malt to use, and OP may be better served to find a more precise recipe, considering that there are probably thousands of American IPA recipes available on the web.– Chino BrewsFeb 28, 2014 at 21:58

I would assume they mean liquid malt extract as the specifically mention dry light malt extract below.
