So for my second batch, I started another kit brew, this time an Irish Stout. The kit's starting gravity was from 1.048-1.052, but when I took two samples (after cooling the wort to 70F and adding water to make 5 gallons), both my starting gravities were 1.062 [temperature corrected]. When I sipped the thief sample it was very sweet and bitter.
What gives?
