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

Ferment in the primary fermenter 7 days, or until fermentation slows, the transfer to secondary and let sit for 14 days. Bottle when fermentation is complete.

This stout is ready to drink as it is carbonated; it is the clone of the version brewed in Ireland and is only 4.3% ABV. It will peak at 2 to 4 months and will keep at cellar temperatures for 5 months. Serve at 50^F (10^C) in a pint glass.

Slow-cook a warming Irish stew with Guinness gravy and serve with Irish soda bread.
