I put down my second brew last night. A Stout from a tin. Smelled pretty amazing going into the fermenter.
I made sure everything was sterile etc. I used a kilo of regular white sugar. Gave it a taste and took a SG reading before pitching the yeast.
Tasted right and SG was 1060 (is this high?). Less than 24 hours on it's already 1030. But still tastes like it's got a while to go. Should I be worried??
ALso, by my maths by the time the brew reaches an SG of 1006, it'll be 7.7% ABV. Maybe my hydrometer is lying to me?
