Fergy1987 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 should raise your OG, which I suppose in a sense would effect your FG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YeastyBoy Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Both as your attenuation of your yeast should be the same percentage all else being equal, hence both OG & FG will be higher when you go short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if FG is higher it'll be a "thicker" mouthfeel beer? (Just so I learn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Just so I learn) Not claiming to be an expert, but I agree with your thoughts. It is also affected by the proportion of unfermentables to fermentables. For example, lactose in stouts increases the density or mouthfeel and sweetness of the beer. Often being referred to as milk stouts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
