I started an RJS Orchard Breezin' Blackberry Merlot kit on Monday afternoon (03/17). The SG was 1.065 and as of yesterday the yeast was happily working away. During the night, it hit me that I had only filled the primary bucket up the the 5 Gallon mark instead of the 6 Gallon mark. Why I did this I couldn't tell you... anyway, this morning I came down and added the other gallon of water and stirred it up. I did not take an SG measurement for those who might ask.


Has anyone else ever done this? And, most importantly, is this kit going to be OK?


Any help, advice, reassurance, etc. would be appreciated.

I also noted that this was my 100th post - woo-hoo. Now I am officially a Senior Member of this forum...

As long as the pot is till bubbling you are fine. What was the starting SG supposed to be?
 
Better not enough than too much. I've done that and then you have to add more ingredients!
