I have been donated some "brewing sugar" (Wilko's own brand) - as it happened this was reduced to cheaper than regular sugar at the supermarket.

Given I'm using DAP, YOungs Super Yeast and 25 litre carboys, what ratio will I be needing of each, please, to run a wash through my T500, please?

How does brewing sugar differ in quantity to regular white sugar, please?

Thanks.

If by brewing sugar you mean Dextrose, you will need about 0.5 Kg more in a 25L wash to result in the same ABV.

Oh! That was a surprise. I thought with it being brewing sugar, I'd need less. I'm glad I asked! thanks for your help, chill. (again!)

IMO, at regular price it is a waste of money for something that will be distilled. Used to make beer, it results in less of a cidery taste. But if it is cheaper than table sugar...
