Well, I bottled my first batch tonight, a Brewer's Best Scottish Ale. Everything seemed to go fairly well but I only got 47.5 bottles out of the batch. I would've gotten 48 if I hadn't taken a sample for measuring with the hydrometer. But it did taste like beer!
So, quick question. My SG at brew time was 1.0356, 1 week later my SG at secondary rack time was 1.0146, and 2 weeks after that my SG at bottle time was 1.0122. Do these numbers sound normal? The specified OG was 1.034 - 1.038 with an ABV% of 3.25-3.50%. It seems like mine will be a bit low at 3.07%.
Thanks in advance!
