What's the best way to get an accurate OG reading. I've only been doing extracts for now. What I've been doing is putting is pumping a little of my final mix into the hydrometers holding case and read from there. The problem is that it seems to stick to the side of the tube and I'm not sure if this is a an accurate reading or not.
My other question is that I brewed a Dunkelweizen today and had a really high OG when I finished. It said I should be at about 1.052 or less. My reading I got was roughly 1.059. Any thoughts? Should I add more top off water? Or am I fine?
