how will brewing a 6gallon batch of home brew with 5gallons of water affect the brew,more alcohol taste better?
I've been making some real good home brew but this time i used less water & more hops & plan to let it aged,after bottling,for at least 3months & maybe a year or longer.My brew has a smooth taste & aroma,but i would like to get the comments from some other brewers.
I have to disagree with the first answer. The poster is right in saying that the yeast will produce the same amount of alcohol with the same amount of sugar, but because you are using less water (if you START with 5 gallons your final batch will probably only be about 4-4.5 gallons because of what is lost in the boil), the resulting solution of alcohol, water, residual sugars, etc. will have a higher percentage of alcohol in it.
Think of it this way: if you have half a glass of beer, and then fill the glass with water, the resulting solution will have the same amount of alcohol in it, but will have a much lower percentage of alcohol simply because of the added water.
As for aging, the slightly higher gravity and added hops will both contribute to a beer that will age well. Three months might mellow it a bit but won't produce much change in flavor. Aging beer is still relatively new and we don't understand much about how it affects it.
