Hi all,
I got a few new gadgets for Christmas and I just finished my first brew of the new year. I used the Dead Ringer IPA kit from NB. Everything seems great so far except for my OG. The kit says OG should be around 1.064. My reading before I pitched the yeast was 1.086... Much higher than expected.
Has anyone else had this happen? I'm used to my gravities being lower than usual but this is the first one that's showing higher.
Should I be worried about my pitch rate now that I estimated my yeast starter on 1.064 OG??
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
