Was really worried that I lost too much yeast from a violent foamover also, but I think because I put 5 liters less water than I was supposed to, plus .2kg more dextrose that it needed, I might end up with a pretty strong tasting brew, but I enjoy experimenting, so it should be interesting

Thanks for all your help guys, really appreciate it.

Okay, I checked my hydrometer with distilled water at 60 degrees and it's spot on, then I put some batch in my tube and cooled it to 60 degrees. Even made sure the hydrometer was the same temperature. I got a reading of 1.010, compared to 1.002 with just a 10 degree difference. So I figure my og...
