Heyo,
Novice brewer here, but unafraid to screw around. Ill get right to the point with what I did (including what I screwed up) and give you the obligatory story at the end so you can skip it.
TrueBrew Belgian Ale (2/2/21)
Recipe called for:
Now quick back information, I live in an area with unpotable tap water and source my water from a spring. I made a mistake in assuming my storage bottles were 5 gallon bottles, however they were 4 gallons. So I boiled a wort with 2 gallons instead of the 2.5 I should have. Additionally, the box contained an additional 1# bag of Pilsen dry malt, which I added, because why not.
What I Brewed 2/2/21
After the brew day I recognized I was down a gallon on content and will plan to rectify by boiling, cooling, and siphoning into my batch post fermentation. Because there was already some deviation, I decided to dry hop in the midst of primary fermentation with 24g of CTZ Cone hops from Yakima Valley. I've seen a few posts lacking results on a dry-hopped Belgian Ale so I'll let you know how things turn out. I'd appreciate any insight or requests for documentation as this unplanned Frankenstein ferments away.
