Hello all. So I started my first attempt at a pumpkin ale, 3 gallon batch. When it came time to add the cinnamon, I realized (after the fact) that I added an extra ounce of cinnamon, 2.2 total instead of one. Anyhow, 5 days out, SpGr went from 1.043 to 1.013. Actually, you can taste the cinnamon for sure but honestly it's not as overbearing as I thought it was going to be. Quite bitter currently. In rescanning the recipe, it was actually my fault, I misread it completely and added the extra ounce of cinnamon. So.....a bit extra cinnamon (oh,and extra nutmeg also), still worth adding the pumpkin to secondary and going all in for it? I guess the worst that could happen is I pitch it afterwards and try again.
I'm a newbie, this is only my second BIAB batch, the first is still conditioning. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, and I hope you all have a safe and blessed holiday season.

Russell
