I went to the home brew store and they were out of the pound bags of dextrose so he went in back got "two" pounds worth of smaller bags. so fast forward i put all the bags in the carboy and then i realize he gave 3 pounds instead of 2. Will this have an adverse effect on the wine? should i worry about it? will it effect the taste? alcohol content? the batch size is 5.5 gallons i have a 6 gallon glass carboy didnt want to waste the space.
Alcohol will be higher, and the final product could possibly be a little sweeter. Most likely, the only thing you'd notice is a hotter taste from the alcohol. It should still be good
