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

base of 10# grain, 4oz of wheat for 5 gal batch with fly sparge


1:1:1 sterling:saaz:saaz at 60, 30, 5 min

Noted very high extraction efficiency on first brew of this. Only change was stirred mash at 30 and 55 min.

Had 3.5 gal pre-boil, did 90 min boil. had 2.3 gal post boil.

Increased 60 min hop addition slightly to offset unexpectedly high extraction efficiency to stay around 0.5 BU/OG ratio
