Can a second batch of wort be added on top of actively fermenting wort? I have a small 2.5 gallon batch of beer actively fermenting. The color is not what I wanted as it is too dark. I plan to brew another equal size batch with primarily pilsner malt with about the same starting gravity of the first batch. Originally my thought was to make the second batch separately and then blend them both after both have completed fermentation. What are your thoughts on just adding the new wort on top of the active wort instead? Or would you go with a second separate batch and why?
