Tried a Modelo Negra batch last night. (AG).
When I was finished, the gravity was way higher than expected (1.061 compared to the correct 1.047).
As I looked thru my stuff, I reallized I had twice the Munich than I had intended.
This was supposed to be a 4 1/2- 5% ABV.
Question is can I help the goof up by adding (pre-boiled and cooled)water to my batch? I dont know what that will do to it, post boil post yeast.
Of course that would mess up my hop schedule, too. So would a hop addition to the water boil correct it?
Anyone ever tried?
