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

Fermented in mid summer in Sacramento, hence Kveik. Last hop addition went into fermenter after fermentation had established, rather than secondary. Robust ferment began within 6 hours of pitching from 24 oz starter. Final gravity 1.010 after 90 hrs in primary. Drinkable prior to carbonation and aging in keg
