Purchased the .5# DME to bring an order for a wine kit up to the free shipping amount. Would not recommend buying such a small amount because it is ridiculously expensive compared to a larger package. Unless of course, you are using it as in my case.

turned out fantastic. dissolves well, batch was delicious

I use this for all my yeast starters. Convenient and works well.

This DME has (in my opinion) a much better flavor than the really light extracts; I use it for nearly every style unless it's a light lager. It has more grainy/bready flavor to my taste.

I brew all grain but allways keep some DME on hand for doing yeast starters.

Perfect for our mash extract brews. Keeps our brew light.

I use this all the time for yeast starters. Works great. I’ll even through it a batch of beer now and again to bump ABV.

I've been using this to make yeast starters and it has worked fantastically. I'm using 100 grams (3.5oz) per liter and come out with solid 1.040 wort.

Does exactly what it's supposed to.

I use this mostly for yeast starters but always keep 3-5lbs on hand for when my mash decides to come up short. I hate it when that happens. Powdery brew day insurance ftw. Moorebeer packages in a nice thick multiple-mil bag. Once you open it, you'll want to reseal that bad boy or it will pull all the moisture out of the air and turn to hard candy. I recommend one of those vacuum sealer food bag systems.

I use this for yeast starters. For this purpose, it's perfect.

I pitch my yeast the day before I brew. I use this for my ale yeast pitch and a lil kick extra in the boil too. Works like a champ!

Love the fact that these DME's come in the half pound size in all varieties. I use these to start my yeast for my 10 gal ,yield, all grain batches of beer. Starting the yeast in a flask on the stir plate gets things off to the races quickly and I have never had a failure, due to starting the yeast proofs the viability.

I used this to make a Belgian Pale ale. The ale turned out quite tasty.

great to always have in inventory, good for yeast starter and OG booster

I suppose it is as good an extract as all the rest. Handy to have for yeast starters and such. Can't live without it.

I boil 1 liter of water with 100 grams of DME for 10 minutes, then cool to 70 F, pour into a sanitized 1 gallon jug, add yeast, cover with sanitized nylon mesh and loose aluminum foil, and put on a stir plate for about 24 hours. This gives me a liter of good starter for my next batch of beer. It has worked very well.

Made my Ales disappear faster than usual :-)
