I had to give a rating to post but this is more of a question rather than a review...

I am really interested in trying this, but I'm wondering if there was an ingredient left out (presumably a base grain). I don't see how the 8lbs of Maris and the 8oz carapils could hit a SG so high on a 5 gallon batch.
