So I just bottled my third batch of beer (all three batches were Brewer's Best kits). I have been consistently getting alcohol contents that are on the low end of the range listed on the kit (and sometimes lower). My OG and FG readings have been within their ranges (and I've made sure to stir appropriately and make temperature corrections).
So I realize that if you're on the low end of the spectrum for the OG and the high end for the FG, then you're going to end up with a low alcohol content. My question is, what am I doing to consistently have this happen? Or what can I do to fix this? I don't want to have to add ingredients to my kits to "make it right," but would rather fix my brewing process (since this has consistently happened over three different kits/recipes).
Questions? Suggestions?
Thanks!
