SG calc possibly off

Category: ESB 4 — Josh @ 8:59 pm

looking at the numbers on this, it appears that my initial SG may be off. If I calculate it by points, I come up with a SG of 1.065. I think I may have been reading the hygrometer wrong

Mash = 139 pts
LME = 237.6 pts
Sugar = 46 pts
422.6 Total / 6.5 gallons = 65 ppg

I am thinking that the initial SG reading was 1.060 (1.062 corrected) This would bring the ABV of this brew up to 6.2 %. I guess I will have to brew this one again. It all does not really matter. This brew tastes really good.
