This is my first time doing an all extract kit, previously I have done a couple specialty grains so nothing crazy. However with this kit my OG was supposed to be 1.054 and my reading came out to 1.056...I'm not too worried about that because the recipe was for 5.25 gal and I always fill up to 5 gal even. The thing that is tripping me out is that the FG is supposed to be 1.013 and my reading was 1.010...Now at first I thought maybe it was because I was fermenting at 76 degrees so i corrected my readings and I'm still getting a beer that is 6%. Not that I have a problem with a 6% beer at all, the stronger the better but could this be because i only used 5gal in a 5.25gal recipe? I'm just kind of scratching my head on this one, I don't understand how my FG got so low...Thanks in advance guys
