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

I only hit 5% ABV with and FG of 1.036. I think fermentation was too warm.

It tastes very good before bottle conditioning. Will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Carbonation on this one failed, I got no carbonation at all.
