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

Boil off is around -1.5 gal per hr, top off with water to drop OG to 1.049/12.1P and 5 gal total volume post boil. Steep corn w/grains. 5.4pH mash target.
