Hey! old member(new account) looking for some advice.
I have been brewing extract IPA's and want a lighter color, I've made brewers best kits, clone kits and made my own recipes. All have about the same color, dark orange/brownish. Can I get lighter beer with extract or is it just the nature of the beast.
My latest was
1 lb crystal 20L (20 min)
6 lb pale DME
1.5 lb cane sugar
hops were warrior, chinook, citra and dry hopped with simcoe
I have used liquid malt, crystal 10L, carapils, caramel, different hops, 30min boils, 60 min boils... All produce close to the same color
Any ideas?
