Well... I took a very newbie step and decided to mess with it. I realised that I never put in the extra gallon of water I intended to to make up for boil-off, so I had less than 5 gal in the fermenter.
SOOO
I boiled up about half a gallon of water on the stove. Added about an ounce and a half of leaf fuggles (just barley fit in the pot) and boiled for about 30 min gently, cooled and added to the fermenter. That should bring the bitterness up a bit and make the gravity a little closer to the expected for this recipe!
I know, I know RDWHAHB, but still, I did it.
