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

The honey is not in Charlie's original recipe, but it sounds like a nice addition to me. The original recipe also calls for American ale yeast, but all that I have is English ale yeast.
