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

Set boil size to 3. For 3 gal boil, use steeped grains plus 1 lb LME Wheat to achieve 15 IBU. Add remaining LME at end of boil.
