Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 17.4 L) 11.1
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 17.4 L) 11.7
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -1

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

This is intended as a two week beer in the fermenter and over 5%.

Added part of the DME before the boil when I brought the sparge water over. Mixed well and let the grains sit in 2L of water for 10 min and then let drain over the fermenter.

Will add the last 3rd of DME in the last 15 min.
OG 1.042 - Need to up it a bit.
I am thinking to up the base malt (LME) to around 2 kg. depending on my LHBS measures.

The wort tasted sweet with a light sense of corn with a light earthiness from the grains on the tail-end.

The wort tasted the same as before. The fuzziness was slight. the final ABV was 1.012. it needed to be lower will need to up the LME or add a bit of dextrose.
