Brewed NBs Plinian Legacy extract kit today. My OG was 1.040 instead of my target of 1.070. Followed directions to a T with two exceptions: 1) forgot to add the .25oz Amarillo when steeping grains before boil (so I threw them in before adding the 4lbs DME) and 2) used the full 1lb of corn sugar instead of the .75lb it called for. Really confused because if anything the extra sugar should have upped the OG. Did a 3gal boil and added that to 3gal water in the Carboy (recipe calls for 6gal batch size) and pitches my 1.5L starter into that.
Any ideas?
