Thanks so much for the info! Well it has started fermenting and i think i am going to ride this one out. Maybe hope for that smaller amount of stronger beer comment!! But i am already excited to start up a second batch- definitely a learning experience! Thanks again for the advice it is nice...
I just attempted my first batch and should have but a 5 gallon mark on my 6.5 gallon carboy but didn't and now i am thinking i might have only 4 gallons in there. . . Is there anything i can do now (probably not) and is my batch ruined cause of this?
