I'm a Doomass!

While planning my Scwarzbier recipe for today, being so used to working on
6 gallon recipes, forgot I was going to have to lager in two LBK'S!
I had already started mashing before discovering the error, now I have a beer that is going to end up
about 1.063 OG instead of 1.053 and if it hits all the numbers, will be about 6.5 ABV!
I won't tell SWMBO! She love this style beer!
Not a tragedy by any stretch, but not the way to try to replicate a nice beer!
