I just brewed up my third ever batch. It's a lager. I made a little booboo, I added a too much water to the primary fermenter. So now, instead of ~5 gallons, I've probably got close to 5.5-5.7 gallons. I'm a little concerned about the beer coming out too watered down. Will this be a problem? Anything I can do about it?
Thanks, jd
Your problem might be in the carbonation stage. When you change the amount of beer you must also change the amount of priming suger(corn) to reflect the volume change. Easy soloutuion: dump out the .5-.7 gallons before bottling and priming. Yes the beer might be too watery, but at least it will be carbonated propperly.
