So we were brewing a NB Bourbon Porter all grain. Everything was going according to plan when I noticed a leak with the work chiller about 2.5 gallons leaked into the tun until we realized it. I elected to put it back on the burner to re boil down to the 5 gallons that was needed. I transfered the wort to another tun in order to get as much of the hops out which I did get about 90 percent of it.
Unfortunately, I had an event in the day and by the time ever thing was said and done, it was a 6.2 hour boil! I made a yeast starter. The target O.G. was 1.065 and the wort was at 1.064.
What are the odds that this will still turn out okay? The transferring did oxygenate the wort while at a high temp but then I did another boil for 5 hours. Will that still effect it? Should I just give up or should I add the toasted oak cubes and makers mark to the secondary?
Please. Experts. Help me!
Thanks!
