Sugar!

Post by macleanb » Tue Feb 19, 2008 9:15 am

Hi Guys

Whilst I am just starting my extract brewing apprenticeship, I am already looking ahead to my first AG. I have been studying Daves Lines big beer book - but I have a question regarding sugar - it seems as if all his recipes have quite a lot of sugar in them. As a kit brewer, it seemed to me that sugar = bad, dextrose = forgivable and DME=good. How come theres so their is so much sugar in AG which I had assumed was the "high temple" of brewing?


Cheers
