If I didn't measure initial SG does this mean that I'll only have a rough idea of final SG from the readout on the hydrometer scale?
not only that but if I'm reading my hydrometer right it's showing me 1.016 @ 77F. Does this mean that the first beer I've brewed is a 1%r?
Tasted the sample and even though it was, obviously, flat I'm surprised at how inoffensive it tasted. My fermentation temp was way too high, about 26 to 28 degrees Celsius for the most part so was expecting it to be pretty gruesome. Actually cleared out quite well in the sample tube and looks a nice colour. Yeasty, a little malty, didn't seem too sweet. Been in the fermentor for 12 days but I'm leaning towards letting it go another week or so.
