WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

End of boil was 1.043 gravity.
Starter was originally made using white sugar and champagne yeast but didnt seem to take off so i pitched US05 with a use by date of 2 years previous. it looked like it was going well but didn't drop much on the gravity after 1 day.
