Made 5 gallons Coopers Dark Ale last night with young's beer enhancer. I was rather disappointed with the OG of 1038 which I believe is around 3 1/2% is that correct? Also will it end up around 4% after the priming sugar had been added to the barrel?
I would have liked this brew to have been a bit stronger between 4% and 5%. The hydrometer reading was taken in the FV at a temp of 24 degrees I don't know after calculations this would further increase or decrease my total alcohol %?
As it's less than 24 hours since I made would it be possible or not to increase the alcohol. If so by what means or is it recommended I leave well alone. All feedback will be greatly appreciated. :
