I made a Honey Pale
all extract, 3lbs light DME and 2 lbs honey(im thinking 2 was too many)
and some hops, anyhow..I used safale 04 dry ale yeast and i did hit my target 4.5% but the final gravity is 1.030 and its got way too much body and honey flavor/sweetness. i really didnt want to make a high octane beer. but id like to lose another 10-15 points ,so how can i drop the body and sweetness without boosting the alcohol?
Amylase? or should i just suck it up and re-pitch?
Suggestions? Joe
