When the recipe calls for a 5g batch, is it 5 gallons prior to pitching the yeast (wort temperature around 70F) or 5 gallons to bottle ?
I did my 1st brew last week, poured the wort into the bucket, added water to the 5 gallons mark I measured and today, after racking to a carboy, I was surprised to see how much beer I lost ! I think I'm around 4-4.5 gallons.
