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

modified from last years version. adding ginger and possibly nutmeg back into the mix, reducing cinnamon and clove? not sure by how much. refer to trustmonkey/pki for decent balanced spice amounts. increasing the bitter orange peel contribution and adding sweet orange peel. may add .5 lb more dme.

2014 notes :
boiled 1.5 lb extract for total 60 minutes, added the rest (6lb) after 45 minutes (total 15 minutes)

cut and scrape vanilla bean and soak in small amount of bourbon for 24 hours and add it to the secondary. the other spices can go in for 5-15 minutes at the end of the boil.
