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

Start with 2.5 gallons water.

Steep 0.5lb Caramel 10L for 20min or until water is 170F. Add 1oz Summit hops while steeping (first wort hops).

Bring to boil then add 3.15 LME.

Return to boil and boil 60min, adding hops per schedule.

Add 6lbs LME at 15min before end of boil.
Add 2lbs sugar 5min before end of boil.

Hop stand the 0.5oz Summit and 2oz Cascade for 15min after turning off heat.

Cool to 100F.

Fill primary with 2 gallons of cold water, then pour cooled wort in. Top up with cold water to 5 gallons.

Aerate and take gravity, if desired, then add yeast.
