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

This comes out as a fairly dark Heff, looks like a pale ale.
Good flavors overall.
Screwed up the bottling sugar, low carbonation.
