i missed my final volume do to a mistake with my dipstick that measures how many gallons i have in my keggle, so im like a .5 gallons to 1 gallon short on all 4 of these beers, (i was brewing 2x10 gallon batches of beer) i am high on my OG.... i thought i would boil some water and add it to it, but someone in the chat said that everytime they add water that it makes the beer taste watery, I am doing AG.... I dont under stand how that could be if i have the gravity points to spare after i do the water calc (so i dont make my beer toooo weak) should i top up with boiled water? if so how late can i top up? after fermentation? the next day? is it a bad idea and should i just leave it? hmmmmmmm thoughts? debate? thanks guys oooh yah..... should i aerate the water? or just boil it then cool it down to my fermentation temp?
Cheers!
