I just brewed my first partial mash, an oatmeal stout, from a Northern Brewer kit. The instructions say the the OG should be 1042. Mine was 1032. What factors determine the OG? What might I have done differently to make the gravity higher?
Since it was partial mash, I'm assuming you just didn't mix well. Thats usually the biggest case with extract or partial mash kits.
Ah. So the OG could actually be higher that the reading I'm getting? Or is it indeed wasn't mixed well, I'm stuck with 1032?
