So I brewed a batch last night "Cinco De Mayo" Brew My og should have been 1.045 - 1.052. It turned out to be 1.022
3.5 Ib LME
1 Ib DME
1/2 oz hops last 3 mins of boil
the reading was taken after the boil, wort was put in 5gal & water added also.
The kicker is I had already cooked the wort by time I remembered I broke my thermometer after the last batch :smack: so temperature was unknown Id say in the range of 70F - 80F
Maybe next brew I'll try no to so much before I cook LoL, do you think I didn't have it mixed well & had a watered down reading. I try to stay out of my beer to reduce risk of contamination but do you think i should check it today?
