    The yeast selection matters much more than the exact OG and FG. We should have done that first methinks.

    You still have time to change your vote to 1.014, since the exact OG/FG matters less. :slight_smile:

    Mean: 1.0133
    Median: 1.0135
    Modes: 1.012, 1.014

    So we have a bimodal distribution, with the centers very close to each other. I'm calling this one for 1.013, which is within spitting distance of (and between) both modes and very close to the mean and median. Few will love the compromise, but few should hate it, given it's within one gravity point of what 88% of voters chose. And it avoids a runoff.
