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

Mashed steeping grain at 158º F for 50 minutes, Sparged with 1 quart 175º water.

1/2 pound of LME was added to the start of boil. The remainder of the LME & DME was added at 60 minutes into the boil. Fermentables were boiled 10 minutes to sterilize for a total boil time of 70 minutes.

Yeast was re-hydrated and pitched when into 80º wort. Wort was aerated for 15 minutes using aquarium pump, HEPA filter and 5 micron stone.

Fermentation bucket was placed in 68º room at 1:30 PM. Bubbles were flowing trough air-lock at 3:15 PM
