Okay... first of all I know it's all my fault for rushing my brew day to have dinner with SWMBO.
So I accidentally added a "little" extra water to the mash. I drained it all to the kettle and began my boil. I just bought a new 60qt pot and haven't marked off the volumes on my spoon, so 2 hours into the boil I think I'm around 5.5 gallons. I chill the wort, toss it in the primary and pitch the yeast...and happen to notice that I'm at the 7 gallon marker on my 7.5 gallon conical. SWEEEEET.
After fermenting for ~5 days, it tastes...very very weak.
My question to you: Should I rack off the yeast and boil down to 5.5g?
