Hi All,
We brewed a large batch (55l boiled for ~76l in two fermenters) last Tuesday.
We were spot on our targets throughout the night; then got a little sloppy (02:30 and too many brews I suspect) and added too much water to the fermenters while chasing the SG of 1053. Over shot to 1049. Sounds like an advertisement for No Chill doesn't it? We were gutted...
Racking tonight. I wonder if there is any merit in adding some boiled DME in secondary to try and correct the gravity? Any thoughts?
Cheers
Breezy
