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

I know anyone reading this recipe has already found many Maple Nut Brown Recipes that have not worked. I offer two solutions to get the maple flavor in your beer. I brew the nut brown ale, ferment it, then keg it. I let it sit in the kegerator for a day or so then add the maple syrup. This gets the maple flavor but it will drop off as the beer sits because even cold ale yeast still ferments available sugars. The other method I have not tried because I really do not want to add chemicals to my beer is by adding Camden Tables (sodium bisulfite) to control the yeast.

Good luck. If the maple syrup does not leave a flavor at least you will have a good nut brown ale with a little extra alcohol.
