Hey everyone,
I just got done bottling a jalapeño pale ale that I was really excited about only to be able to fill 10 normal sized bottles. Disappointing and puzzling. I've brewed 2.5 gallon batches before that yielded many more bottles.
I first thought was that I forgot to top off before I pitched the yeast but I checked my ( very detailed ) notes and I see that I did.
So is this just something that naturally happens sometimes? Was it my ingredients? Is that about how many bottles I should expect?
Any and all hell appreciated.
