So generally I like to do split batches when I brew 5.5 gallons. It allows me to experiment and change the flavor up a little. I have a brew in primary right now and was going to add some hibiscus, wild cherry bark, lemongrass, rosehips, orange peel and peppermint. Sounds weird, but i have tried it steeped. It's good. I am using clean bittering hops, and for flavor I'm using hops that taste lemony, minty and piney.
Anyway... This guy me to think, can I up my ABV after racking off half once primary is done? I missed my OG by a few points and find some extra cane sugar in my cabinet. Could I just boil it in a little water and toss it in with my steeped adjuncts?
Thanks.
