I can read the hydro, I can do the math...but I am lost as to what it is supposed to tell you if you have no prior knowledge of where you should be.
Brewing my 2nd beer, NB's Honey Brown Ale.
It is day 11 and everything has looked perfect so far.
I decided to take a hydro today. The OG for this beer is 1050, I measured 1008...so the ABV at this point is 5.5%.
Sooo...I hate that NB doesn't tell you what the ABV should be or what your FG should be.
So what does this reading tell me? I am not about to bottle this early obviously, but it would seem this is about what the FG should be...is it normal to have finished FG at this point?
Thank you for your comments.
