how do you keep your origanal gravity low (say 1.045)and still get your alcohol up to 5%.what i'm saying is a lighter beer with normal alc.%.if that makes any sense.i'm guessing it's what fermentables you use,but when i use some of the recipe calculaters inorder to get my alc% up to 5%,it will say the og. is around 1.050 and up.some of the beer i have done had og's that high and finished at around 1.012 to 1.014 how do you get a beer that is say, 1.043 down to 1.006 and be around 5% alc.this might be the most @#$%^% question i have asked on here so far i know but thanks for any replie's.
