Just after some advice please I am making a spirit base kit I should have added 5 liters of water but added 5 and a half.

Should I just let It ride as is or add a little more sugar. Or will I even be able to tell?

Thanks Ian
 
I doubt you'd be able to tell. Is it one of the prohibition kits? if it is, follow the instructions for adding the flavouring, too much of the spirit base and it'll taste (even more) yuk.
 
No it a alcotek one with the carbon to make 20 percent alcohol.

I hot to admit I was thinking half a liter would not matter to much
 
What is in these kits? Would using a high alcohol yeast with sugar and water not produce the same results?
 
Probably I only got as kit contains activated carbon to take the nasty out. More pure for when adding to my baileys kit that I need it for.
