I'm on day 4 of fermentation and just realized I didn't correct my OG for temp...can I still add water or is it too late?
cooper said:I'd let it go and proceed as normal. Just remember it on the next brew. There are so many beers I wish I could get back because I ruined them by trying to "fix" something later in the game. :/
It was a BB Weizenbier extract kit. I boiled 2.5g of water for the wort, then added the other (roughly) 2g when it went to fermentation. I watched the gravity and stopped adding water when it hit 1.047 ( rec'd OG of 1.047 - 1.051 if I remember right - I don't have the paper nearby atm) I wound up with a volume of about 4.25g in the fermenter. Wort temp was at about 70*F, ambient at about 68*F.
