In short, I was way off my expected gravities -- both pre-boil and OG. I was aiming for an OG of 1.058 and got 1.054. Lots of things didn't work very well and I will be adjusting the process for the next brew.
My question is two fold. The first is what affect the lower OG will have on the finished product? Obviously, it won't have quite the same % ABV. Will there be any other affects?
Second. Could I have fixed this at the end by adding some DME? Or maybe adding it during the wort boil? Or is it better to just admit I messed up and take what ever comes next?
Thanks,
Mik
