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

The total wort boil time is 90 minutes. Steep grains for 20 minutes at 170°F. Add the bittering hops with 60 minutes remaining in the boil. Add lactose with 15 minutes left. Chill the wort to 68°F and aerate thoroughly.

Ferment at 68°F until the yeast drops clear. With healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in a week or less. Two weeks secondary. At bottling add a tincture of chai spices. Usually it only takes 3tsp of tincture to spice 5 gallons of beer.
