I started my first batch of SP today and while I was topping it off with water the cap came off and dumped a pile of water into the primary!!! E-Gads! (Is that how you spell that...."E-Gads"?) Anyway...I measured the SG and it was 1.04...far too low according to the recipe. I added in 5 more cups of sugar and it's now at 1.06. So the question is...should I add more sugar to get the initial SG up to 1.07, or will it be ok as is?
I'm thinking (putting myself out on the potential stupid-limb here) that it should be left as is...the worst that should happen is that I'll end up with higher than the 10% ABV as per the original recipe...is that right, or have I just fallen off that stupid-limb?
