I bought this kit and the website said this American ipa was about 6%abv and 46 ibus.
Kit Profile:
Original Gravity: 1.066
Malts & Specialty Grains
- 9 lbs. Light DME
- 1lb. Caramel 60L (Steeping Grains)
Hops
- 3 oz. Centennial (Bittering/Flavor/Aroma)
- 1 oz. Cascade (Dry Hop)
Yeast
- Choice of Safale-05 / Danstar Premium Ale Yeast / White Labs California Ale Yeast
Now the site changed the name to imperial ipa with the same recipe. It says the og is.1.082 and around 70ibus. Should be around 8.5% abv. I'm confused. My first Hydrometer reading said 1.082 and i thought i screwed it up. It fermented to 1.020. The projected alcohol reading said 5%. I did the abv equation and that said 7.9%. What the hell is going on here.
