Hello,
This is my fifth batch of beer, and it is a big Belgian Quad. OG was 1102. I topped up to 19 liters in the primary and pitched 2 vials of WLP500. Fermentation is complete now (FG 1024) and it is conditioning. What I don't understand is now the volume reads 21 liters. Is this because those yeasties multiplied enough to take up 2 more liters in volume? If so, that's a lot of yeasties.
