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

Steep grain in 5.5 gal of 153°F (67°C) water for 30 minutes, then raise the temperature to 168°F (76°C). Remove the bag, rinse the grains, bring to a boil and add DME and hops.

Fermentation temperature in the 66–68°F range. Add the 1 oz of medium toast American Oak Chips after primary fermentation is complete, allow 7–10 days of contact time. Add the dry hops 3–7 days before packaging.
