I have a low beer level in my secondary because i did not top up after my hop boil. Am i able to add water to the secondary?
I am following a recipe that has me 1 to 4 weeks primary and 2 to 8 weeks in glass carboy secondary. My gravity at primary was 1.08 and now at secondary is 1.016. The recipe has a original/final gravity : 1.052/1.012.
This is my first homebrew so i am not familiar yet with what is good or bad.

Just for the record, it is perfectly fine to thin out wort which has a to high gravity with water, prior to fermentation. So next time, if you do not want a beer this strong, just water the unfermented wort down till you got your desired original gravity. But stir very well in between the measurements, otherwise you might get false readings.I am following a recipe that has me 1 to 4 weeks primary and 2 to 8 weeks in glass carboy secondary.
