Ok first major mistake on my part, I was drinking home brew when I was brewing my 3rd batch and I think that may have had something to do with this mistake lol.
So the recipe I was making called for 2.5lbs of honey so I figured 16oz to a pound and but I didnt take into account that 16 fluid oz of honey actually equals 1.5lbs of honey. so now I have a beer that is finally done fermenting after 2 weeks but it is still to sweet to drink. How can I fix this?
I have read that maybe a hop tea would help fix this but I want to make sure before I do that. also people said to blend it with another batch of a hoppy beer, how would I do that? would I just wait until the other beer is done fermenting and then mix the two?
Thanks,
Eric
