Hello all,
Pretty new to brewing I'm attempting to make a Munich dunkal. After doing the boil and adding malt and dextrose I took a hydrometer reading the wort was at about 60 degrees my reading was 1.040. I put my fermenter in my largering fridge and chilled it to 10.5 degrees took another hydrometer reading from the top of the wort and it was 1.046 than I took a reading from the bottom and it was 1.050. I decided averaging the last 2 readings 1.048. Is this the best way to get an OG reading to judge the final abv?
Thanks,
Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated
