Out of curiosity I took a gravity reading. Currently its sitting at about 1.060. I think when all is said and done it will be about 1.043.
The color is really nice and has a great hop notes but mouth feel at first feels thin and taste a little watered down.
I got a new carboy which is 6.5 gallons. I believe I got a bit over confident when calculating boil off and eyed 5 gallons in correctly. Sittin on about an inch of trub realistically its probably 6 gallons.
Can I fix this in any way, possibly by dry hopping? Should I expect it to concentrate more as I get closer to my desired gravity?
I might just have a "summer ale" on my hands.
Thanks.
