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 primary until fermentation slows, transfer to secondary and wait for fermentation to stop.

Add Gelatin (optional) 3 days prior to bottling and cold crash in fridge to clarify beer.

Bottle condition 21 days. Chill 3 days..enjoy.

Very smooth with a light sweetness and 6+% alcohol.
