So I mistakenly pitched dry yeast without a starter. I just measured the yeast and pitched it into a 2.5 gallon raisin and prune mash. Mixed and stirred, that's it. I waited till the temperature was "right".
Question 1: Did I pitch wrong?
Question 2: I added a LOAD!!! of sugar and used 6 pounds of fruit in 2.5 gal...should my SG be more than 15%, because that's where its at..I thought it would be more...
Any thoughts?
Id like to get more alcohol% out of if possible....
Please let me know what you think. Thanks.
