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

For extract version, bring water to target mash temp, remove from heat, steep specialty malt (in bag) for 20 minutes off heat, remove specialty malt (drip bag for a minute), add extract and fully dissolve into mash water, return to heat, and bring to boil.

Make spice extract by soaking spices below in 200ml vodka for a few weeks.

Whole Peeled Ginger (shredded) – 3.2 oz
Ground Ginger – 3 oz
Ground Cinnamon – 2.4 oz
Ground Nutmeg – 1.4 oz
Ground Cloves – 1.2 oz
Ground Cardamom – 0.6 oz
Ground Vanilla – 0.5 oz

Dose test to see how many mls of extract are needed for desired spice level
