extra can instead of sugar

[bigpots]

On the cascade brewing instructions the say try adding another can of extract instead of sugar. has anyone tried this?

If you use the kit and a tin of malt extract it will give you a brew with more body and a more malty taste, it is actually better than just using sugar IMHO. You might just need to add some more hops to balance out the malt sweetness

do a search on twocan or toucan,. You will get your answers there.

I get the impression the question is about a can of unhopped extract, rather than a 2 can brew.

Using a can of unhopped malt extract will give you a perfectly good beer, certainly better than with the brew mixes or straight sugar.

Possibly. I may have read too much into it when he said "another" can of extract..

The web site does say this;

"For extra flavour, replace some of the sugar with unhopped malt extract or use some Cascade Premium Home Brew Extract from another can"

it did mention unhopped extract but also sugested using another can at the rate of 1.2 times the weight of sugar replaced. sounds like its what u call a two can brew , i'll look it up. thanks
