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

Substitute 96% pale malt + 4% Briess Victory or Biscuit malt for Maris Otter.
Can also use Vienna malt for Maris Otter or Simpson's Golden Promise.
Pale Ale malt can be used also.

Mash at pH 5.2-5.5, temp from 150-160 for 1 hour.

Calculated mash efficiency was low.

Boil for 60 minutes.

FG = 1.025
