I brewed on Sunday with a new system and way under estimated the boil off and ended up with less than 4 gallons of wort. My SF gravity was over 1.060 and much higher than anticipated... I tasted the wort after chilling and it has a very strong grain flavor.
I pitched my starter in and within a few hours fermetation had started.
After thinking about this, I should have boiled and cooled some water and added to the wort prior to pitching to reduce the SF Gravity. Is it too late to dilute this down now that the fermentation is well under way?
I guess, I could just dry hop the $hit out of it and call it an Imperial Rye Ale
What do you think?
