    California Common Recipe Critique PM

    I have never made a Cali Common. I love Anchor steam and especially the sierra nevada CC. I know that traditionally the CC are just 2-row and crystal. I am trying to give it a little more character, with a nice malty taste. Does this recipe sound about right, or because of the additional grain...

    Adding ABV?

    So I did a brew today and my OG is @ 1.043 and I was hoping to have it over 1.05. So now when the fermentation is complete I am going to have a brew around mid to low 4 % ABV. I was wondering if there is any way to bump this up. I have already pitched my yeast and am using a Wyeast 1007. Thanks.
