Ok, I wanted to make a BIG barley wine, so these were the fermentables I used in a 6 gallon batch:
7lbs Amber ME
3lbs DME
1.5lbs honey
2lbs brown sugar
2lbs molasses
My OG is 1.32 WTF? This can't be right. According to The Beer Recipator, I would have had to use 30lbs of extract, 3.75lbs of honey, 3.75lbs brown sugar, and 3.75lbs of molasses to get this OG. Someone please tell me what is going on.
By the way, I pitched 2 vials of WL099 Super High Gravity Yeast.
Thanks in advance,
Rich
