I´ve been searching for threads on diluting a high gravity wort BEFORE fermentation. All i´m finding is dilution after fermentation.
Has anyone tried it before?
The reason I want to try this, is because I have a larger fermenter capacity (70 L), and a smaller mash tun (50L). I was thinking about brewing 50 L of a higher gravity brew, and adding 10 more liters of boiled and cooled water to the fermenter before pitching the yeast.
is there any cons to this technique?
