Hey guys,
I just finished brewing an AG maple beer and just before it went into the fermenter I took a gravity reading and it was 1.025. Now I had planned to have this follow a Brown Ale recipe but added with some maple syrup and followed all of the instructions as per Beersmith. It said it should have come out at 1.045-1.060 with a FG of 1.010 to 1.015. What does this mean for my brew? A higher Alchol percentile? If this is teh case that's fine. I don't mind having someing around 6-8% but as I am new to homebrewing I have no clue what this means. Any help would be great. Thanks!
