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

OG was 1.056. FG was 1.010. Used 5oz of priming sugar for approximately 2.5vol CO2. Hydrometer sample tastes and smells great!
