So this is what happened. I have currently just finished bottling my first homebrew kit and I think I screwed it up already and didn’t notice until I realized I had about 9 500ml bottles extra. The problem is when racking from primary fermenter to my secondary fermenter I left way to much liquid behind because I was afraid of picking up to much sediment off the bottom with the siphon hose. I didn’t think it was that much at the time but actually works out to 3.5 litres I left behind. Now what the directions called for when bottling was to add this packet of dextrose to the bucket with a cup of boiling water the mix together then add the “beer” if you can call it that yet. Then finally bottling which I did already. So what I am wandering is my beer pooched because the packet of dextrose was supposed to be added to 23 litres of liquid not 19.5 Should I start over again or can I save this somehow?
