I had a couple minutes yesterday to make a yeast starter for my pops. I started with 2500ml of water and 200g of dme for my boil. I boiled for 20 minutes or so. After cooling, I realized that I had only about 1.5 liter's of wort or 1500ml. I was out of time and didn't have my hydrometer with me, so I pitched.
My question is, did I screw myself by pitching? Should I have boiled some water and added it? Would adding distilled water have helped the situation? I know without my hydrometer it's hard to tell how much I messed up. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I'm just concerned my OG was too high and might have hurt my yeast!
