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

This is my sixth iteration of this brew. It has turned out fabulous the previous 5 times.
Brewed on May 20 to be kegged for a farewell party. Chilled with wort chiller and added 1.5 gal preboiled cooled H2O.
Pitched yeast at 72.3º Not sure why calc. are lower but my O.G reading is 1.066.
5/21 fermentation is active and sweet-smelling.
5/29 Racked to second carboy and added 1/2tsp fining agent
s.g. 1.020
6/4 Transferred to 5 gal keg and 64oz growler. Chilled on ice and carbonated to 30 psi overnight.
F.G. 1.014. ABV 6.7
Pounded Keg to much praise.
