Five days ago I brewed an All Grain Dopplebock. Everything went well from the mash through to the end of my 90 minute boil until I noticed I was about 1 gallon low on my desired wort volume (5-1/2 gal) for the fermenter. Being somewhat of a newbie I didn't take my OG reading until after I added a gallon of boiled water while still circulating. My OG was 1.056 instead of the expected 1.075. I went ahead and put it in the fermenter and today I took a reading and the SG is all the way down to 1.012 and it is still active. The FG was supposed to be 1.022.
1. Will I end up with a watered down low ABV beer now?
2. What should I have done differently?
3. Is it too late to recover from my mistakes at this point?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
