I brewed this last Friday: http://hopville.com/recipe/1687484
The hopville program est 1.079. After I topped off the carboy at about 67 degrees, I measured over 1.097. I checked it twice. How is this possible? I thought I would always go under an OG, not over.
I did my partial mash differently this time at 147 for 75 minutes. In my first 5 batches I always pushed hotter above 153. I wanted to try something very different. Could this mash technique be the reason?
