My first time using this yeast.....F me it's mad
I had a brutal brew session last Friday night, lots of reasons (mostly alcohol and own stupidity) led to a very low target miss. I decided to up the % and added sugar the next morning.
The OG is unknown BUT yesterday it was at 1.033, checked today to try to closes guess the OG but the yeast has gone to town and it's down to 1.016.....that is fast and the smells, I just want to dive in and drink it now.
1st OG was 1.038 ish"way of target" but never took one after adding sugar water.

The yeast is a beast
Beer
1 is good, 2 is better, 3 is enough & 4 isn't half enough
