You can certainly add the additional DME at this point (or any point, really), but if you're satisfied with your OG then there's really no need. Personally, I'd add it, as I like my stouts "hearty", but I can understand not wanting to mess with your batch, especially if it's one of your first.

Are you me? That's been exactly my experience! Tried to save the bag by washing it with bleach, but in the end I decided it wasn't worth the chance that I'd introduce something nasty into my next batch so I just ordered a new one. Barring any further brain farts on my part, it should last me...
