wow, I normally don't make it to this part of the website - the beer making. I normally stick to wine, mead, and cider.
My poor husband tried his first ever all grain whatever this last weekend as part of a dandelion bitter. The OG ended up being 1.032...
My knee jerk reaction, as a wine maker, was to add sugar, but he shot me down. Purest, I get that - I hate it when people add sugar to cider. However, I'm still left wondering what adding sugar to his batch would have done, and if it was a good or bad idea.
I will say that wine takes forever to age, so would adding sugar mess with the time line and/or smoothness?
