Had a Brewers Best kit lying around but have been wanting to work with water chemistry more in my beers. Figured this would be a good opportunity to experiment and see what kind of difference/improvements I could make with water additions.

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.
