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

Ferment essentially complete - wait 2 more days, then dry Hop! After 3 days, pull the dry hops and wait 2 more days or so for hop creek to stop.
