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

Mash:
Start water vol 5.15
Add grain at 161.6 (rose up to 162/163)
Fell to 160
Ended at 158

Thermometer built into kettle reads low. Mash temp was probably too high

Final volume 4.4ish

OG 1.072
FG 1.022
ABV 6.56%
