Amount Description Type Start Temp Target Temp Time
1.5 gal Steep grains for 60 min at 148-152* F. Use water vol/grain ration of 2lb/gal to keep pH low and repress tannin leech. Infusion 160 °F 150 °F 60 min

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.

Whirlpool via paddle and let stand 10 min before transferring via pour over a strainer.
