Ive seen a fair amount of posts on this topic but figured I would ask anyway to try to gain some insight. Ive been overshooting expected OG by anywhere from 2-8 points on my last 4 brews. I brewed a pilsner today that I intended to ring in at 1.049 and it ended up at 1.057. That's a pretty significant jump. The only thing I can think of is that my Edelmetall Bru Burner is too intense and boiled it down way too much over 60 mins therefore concentrating the wort. Mash bill was pretty simple at 9 lbs of Pilsner malt and 0.25 lbs of victory. Anything I'm missing? Preboil volume was 6 gallons, as per the recipe. Any help/comments/advice would be appreciated so I can finally make a session beer and stop overshooting! Cheers.
