I brewed my 2nd all grain yesterday and my OG was way lower than I hoped. It's supposed to be an IPA with an OG around 1.062, but my OG was closer to 1.04. The fermentation is very active right now, but I am worried my "IPA" is not going to be as bold as I want it to be. I have some space in my fermenter and I am thinking of boiling 2lbs of malt extract in a gallon of water and adding it to the batch on Sunday with an early transfer to secondary (4 days after I pitched yeast). Is this a good or bad idea? Any advice for sprucing up my low OG?
