So I bought a thief, and a hydrometer to test the gravity of my first brew that was been fermenting for 11 days. I plan to leave it in primary for 2 weeks, but wanted to test the gravity. As it turns out, I don't have a single container that the hydrometer will fit in. This is just my luck!
The good news is, I got to taste the beer. For a flat, unfinished brew, it was absolutely delicious! I'm so pumped up now. It's super bitter (as you can see in my recipe, I naively added a little too much hops in the beginning of the boil.)
That's fine! I love a bitter beer. But I'd love to have everyone else enjoy it too. Is there anything I can do at this point to lessen the bitterness? Anyway, here's my recipe, I've posted it before. Thanks for any and all input given guys!
