I am brewing an IPA with 7lbs of muntons light dme. The sg should have been 1.064 but when I took my reading I got 1.032. I know the amount of water is accurate having brewed previously. I took my reading prior to pitching the yeast the only thing I did differently was a late extract addition instead of a full boil. This is my first time using dme and I am wondering if I might not have shook the carboy enough to mix it together when I topped off with water but I did shake and swirl pretty vigorously, enough to create foam anyway. Any ideas?
