So I'm brewing an Imperial Stout type beer, but my hydrometer only goes up to 1.070. I'm expecting it to be higher than that. If I dilute the wort with the same volume of water, and the hydrometer reads 1.040, is that equivalent to a OG of 1.080? If not, how do can I figure out what my OG is? Thanks!
BTW, the imperial stout is a partial mash, and this 5 gal batch has grains weighing in at about 8 pounds! I'm psyched. Hopefully I got my water chem calculation right, because I'm adding over 10 g of Calcium Carbonate. :rockin:
