Hey there,
I just did a partial-mash IPA and I dry-hopped the heck out of it - 3 ounces of hop leaves for a 5 gallon batch.
The bags and leaves sucked up a bunch of the liquid, so when i transferred it to my bottling bucket, I came out with a bunch less, maybe 1/2 gallon or so less than the 5 gallons. Would you use water to fill back up to the 5 gallon level?
Thanks.
Dave
