Took my OG reading after chilling my Belgian Wit down, Beer Smith had my Est OG at 1.055 and I was around 1.040.
I forgot to take my sample initially, so I tried to take a sample from the trub/hop gunk that I left in the kettle. I was able to leave most of the hops out but I got a lot of trub. I was curious, is that going to make the hydrometer reading less accurate?
All the gunk shouldn’t actually make a difference. But just for the hell of it pull a sample now and take a reading. It’ll give you another data point anyway. If it’s 1.050 now, for example, you’ll know that you’re earlier reading was off. If it’s 1.035 or so then it was probably right.
