Hello, I made a mistake and racked to the secondary before taking my FG (I know from reading I shouldn't do this but I got too excited and racked to secondary). After doing so, I got a final gravity reading of 1.014. According to the recipe (Honey wheat/extract/got it from this site), the FG should be 1.009. I added a little extra honey that the recipe didn't call for so I'm assuming that could be accounting for the difference.
Did I really screw up here or will this beer turn out ok? Also, I know the recipe said this was an easy drinking beer, but should I expect my ABV to be 2% as my hydrometer is suggesting? When I was playing around with calculators before I brewed it, they were suggesting approximately 5% ABV.
Any help/insight would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
