So a 1/2 cup is 4 ounces, and 3/4 is 6 ounces.If you are totally without measuring equipment the average man's handholds approximately half of a cup = 4ounces. IIRCAs for the yeast, I usually just use about 1/4 to 1/2 a packet of dryyeast.Not sure about liquid yeasts, as I haven't used any yet. :-)The amount/weight of the yeast and sugar kind of depends on what youspecifically want to brew as well.HTHmoiraNo virus found in this outgoing message.Checked by AVG Free Edition.Version: 7.1.362 / Virus Database: 267.13.8/183 - Release Date: 11/25/2005ORGINAL POSTER: moira
