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

Getting ready to brew - comments appreciated. Will do a two stage fermentation then rack to a keg.

This is a great beer. So smooth, clean and crisp with a great mouth feel and creaminess from the oats. Brought this to a neighborhood gathering and it was a huge hit. Lost a lot with the irish moss so still have to figure it out.
