Kegged up my second batch. It's delicious. FG came in at 1.010 so I got about 5% ABV. Not bad. Will be making this in the future for sure.

Brewed this tonight. Boil got away from me. Ended up with 4.5gal of wort. Ended up with an OG of 1.082. Pitched onto a yeast cake from a previous batch using WLP 001.

Should I compensate with extra dry hops to compensate the higher gravity? Any thoughts would be much obliged.

This beer is pretty forgiving, if theres lower ibu it wil be good if there is higher ibu it would be good. I say just leave it as the bitterness isnt going to go up regardless anymore since the boil is done. Adding hops now will just add flover and aroma, mostly aroma.

Man, I kinda screwed the pooch on this one tonight. It just goes to show you that rushing=\= results. Mash went perfectly, run offs looked good, and my preboil gravity was bang on.

I went to transfer it to the Carboy and ended up with almost 6gal of wort at only 1.059. What the hell? How does that happen? Well, when your idiot self is used to doing 60 minute boils and doesn't realize that beer smith calls for 90, your og and volume will be way off.

I hope it comes out okay, but I think regardless, this one is going to get a re-do soon.

I just did the same thing. I swear it said 60 minute boil. O.G. is 1.064 with an extra half gallon. Oh well. That's what I get for inebriated planning.
