I just got done brewing this kit from my LHBS and I checked the OG before pitching. My readings were 1.031, checked twice. According to the recipe they have online my OG should be 1.062. Fermentable ingredients, from the recipe, are 8lbs Alexander's Malt Extract. I was given 2 3.3 lb cans of Munton's Wheat Extract. I am wondering if the extract in the recipe is different form what I given since I was given 1.5 lbs less that what was called for.
Is the only thing effected by the low OG going to be ABV or will it have a impact on the taste. Low ABV I can live with, but if it's going to affect the taste should I add some more fermentable sugar at some point?
