Ok, I think I must be doing something wrong, because for the life of me, after about a turn or two putting the brass parts together (3/8 ball valve to barbs), I cannot get them to tighten. Anyone want to shed some light on this for me?
Thanks for the quick responses! Looks like my original gravity is 1.049. That sounds about what I expected.
I'm in the process of making a MLT so I am excited about going AG, but in the meantime I wanted to do a quick extract brew and it had been 2 years so I had forgotten a bunch...
I appologize because I'm sure this has been answered somewhere, but I'm not exactly sure how to search for it cause I dont know what I'm talking about.
But my question is, if I boil 1.5 gallons and take the specific gravity of just that 1.5 gallons, how can I know what the specific gravity...
