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

March 15, 2015
Split batch into two 5.5gal batches. Using new thermowells and heating blankets for first time to keep top and bottom beers at same temp during fermentation. Both set to 20C, ferm chamber set to 15C, but changed to 13C after about 3 days, as this seems a better target temp.

Top OG = 1.044
Bototom OG = 1.042

March 26, 2015
Moved top beer to secondary glass carboy.
Top FG = 1.006 ABV = 4.99%

March 27, 2015
Moved bottom beer to secondary glass carboy.
Top FG = 1.006 ABV = 4.73%
