For the pre-boil gravity reading to be higher then the original gravity(into the fermenter)?
I am thinking that I read the hydrometer incorrectly. My pre-boil reading was 1.061 @ 70F. My reading into the fermenter was 1.058 @ 70F.
Isn't the gravity reading into the fermenter supposed to be HIGHER then the pre-boil gravity? Mine was the opposite.
According to Beersmith my pre-boil should have been 1.041 and OG should have been 1.049.
