Late Night Brewing + Drunk = Forgotten Sugar Addition

[Mylo]

My last point was that the additional (and extraneous) water added with the sugar will dilute the entire batch, instead of just acting as a vehicle for getting the additional sugar into the beer, therefore you should only use as much as you have to.

BTW - I got CRAZY attenuation from my WPL 566 (Saison II platinum strain) - using this late sugar addition. 1.069 - 1.006 = 91% apparent... WOW.

Thank you for all the helpful advice, but I decided not to feed mine extra sugar (missed my gravity due to evaporation miscalculation) and just let it ferment at the lower gravity of 1.070 and call it a dubbel rather than a dark strong. RDWHAHB...and be too lazy to make a sugar solution...that too.
