I am brewing in about an hour and don't want tot mess this up this time. I will boil 3 gallons of wort and add that to 2 gallons of top off water in my carboy. At which point should I take a reading?
Last time I added the wort to the carboy, mixed as best I could with the water, and then poured enough into my test tube to take a reading. My reading was low and most people said it probably wasnt mixed well and gave me a diluted reading... so I want to make sure I do it correctly this time..
I also just bottled my first batch tonight, smelled great and tasted great for flat beer. I am excited!
