So I bought a Fat Tire Clone kit from AHS and decided to see what the 1% alcohol boost was all about. The instructions that were included in the kit did not mention the 1% boost... However the 1% boost package said that it should be added to the boil. So I added the 14 oz supercharged corn sugar once the wort came to a boil. I continued the process an I normally would and found that my OG was 1.062, much higher than the expected OG of 1.050. I have to assume that this is due to the 1% boost addition.
I pitched Nottingham dry yeast and I have it fermenting at 70 F.
My question is: Since my OG was higher than expected, will my FG also be higher than expected??? (expected FG - 1.010)
How will this affect the length of time it will need in the primary / secondary fermenter?
