OG way to high on Dunkelweizen

[Greatwhite4]

Came out with 1.044 pre boil and 1.068 original and was only expecting 1.053. I should have cut the boil time down to 60min with that high of pre boil gravity but live and learn. Question is, cut with with sanitized water to drop OG or be happy with a 7% Dunkel? Opinions?

Depends on if you want to stay true to style or not. You can dilute down with water prior to fermentation if you would like.

Just not sure how a 7% dunkel will taste, could be good!?

My bad, 1.058 was what i was reading, to many pints during the boil i guess. After it finished cooling to room temp its sitting at 1.060 and with my 2l starter im sure it diluted somewhat.

Patience my young padawan.
