Just tried my very first batch of home brew, Atlantic Amber clone. Partial extract. 2 weeks in the primary, 4 weeks in the secondary, 3 weeks in the bottle. Wyeast 2112. Stored the entired time around 72 degrees. Tastes great, alcohol content seems low and almost flat. As this was my first batch I did not test og, too many other things to worry about. As it is I might have scorched the DME, but no burnt flavor. So worried about sanitation I might have pitched the yeast before the wort was completely cooled. Is there anything I can do at this point to raise the alcohol content or am I screwed? Can I use this batch in place of water in my next batch?
