No. I was trying to multi task. trying to do 5 things badly. Instead of one thing badly. But. My question is/was. I striked my water at 160°. I now know I should have had it at 145°, 150°. my hydrometer, keeps reading at a finish gravity. I checked 4 times. I'm not sure if I should trash the batch. Maybe ferment longer, more yeast? I was doing a red ale, 1 gal. I'll rebrew if u must. So frustratinv are the simple mistakes. AAAAAAGGGHHHH.
Me grains be 2 lbs. Of two row. .25 of chocolate malt, .25 Crystal 40L, special roast .25. All mixed together. I can't remember where my finish was on my hydrometer. But was reading on the finish side of hydrometerr. Not the start. Not giving me much of anything. I didn't spend much on the grains. $5 bucks. If I have to rebrew, I have to rebrew. But, wanted to know if it's worth saving.
