Consequently, the beer is not balanced, tasting a bit bitter.
Normally, I'd just drink the mistake away... But I'm having a halloween party and I'd like people
to enjoy the oktoberfest a bit more.
If I add .005 points of sugar to the beer to bring it up to 1.010-1.012, is there going to taste
as if it was part of the normal fermentation ? Or will it have a different taste ?
One chart I found shows .005 of sugar for 4 gallons is 1/2 pound. I did a taste test and it came out a bit sweeter than I would have expected. But at the 100ml / 1.7g scale, it might be off a bit... I'd probably do half that and evaluate it taste wise.
