Keep in mind that when replacing table sugar with corn sugar in a recipe, increase the sugar needed by 10%.

'cause granulated sugar taste sweeter.... more readily fermentable though


I always keep a little around to jump start my yeast, especially if I am using trubb yeast from the fridge (which works very well by the way).... WD
