So I brewed my Pumpkin Ale today, everything for the most part seemed to go OK. Hit all the temps and times just right, so I was expecting things to go OK. Just a couple of issues, first, well I pushed my solid plug into the wort when aerating.... I am sure I have read that is no big worry. It was sanitized, so I still not to sure what to think if it. It's still in there, as I cannot get it out and have no other place to ferment the Wort.
Second, my O.G. its as far as I can read about 1.056 @ 70deg. off from what I was supposed to have 1.042-1.046. I am a little new at reading but yeah, that is about what it is.
I did bake the Libby Pumpkin 400deg, 60 min, BIAB. 2x29oz cans for 58oz, maybe that makes the difference in the O.G? Other then that all went well as advertised.
Taste test the Wort, hmmm pumpkin pie.
hope it turns out.
Edit : Did a calibration check on my Hydrometer. Found water reading to be about 1.004, so I suppose that puts me at an adjusted O.G. 1.052
