That is a mighty small batch of sour beer

 

[EwHaberin]

Lol it was a small batch to begin with, only one gallon and it's the second batch ever brewed, so pretty ambitious to do a sour beer.

Wow, that is a gallon?
Is it in a 6 gallon FV?

 

[EwHaberin]

No it was originally a gallon, I pulled some out early to bottle and then decided to let a 1/4 to sit longer and age longer.

Do not just leave it there you heartless cad!
I will feel lonesome.
Top it off with more wort,that way you get some more of the same,but blended with a little older beer. And there you have your very own pSolera

What are your techniques for topping off? Not ingredients wise etc but actually PHYSICALLY.

Pour it in? Break up pellicle? Underlet? Hose into the carboy? etc etc

Minimizing oxygen pickup is the smart move. Use a hose or underlet.

Also minimize pellicle disturbance as much as possible ... It will re-form, so no big deal either way.
