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

Steep the additional spices in a separate sauce pan for 45 minutes. Use a small grain boiling bag for the whole spices. Keeps things neater and together.

Steep specialty grains at 150 degrees for 20 min.
Mix together and add extract.
Add hops at the right times.
Cool it to 70-75 degrees by your preferred method.

Ferment for two weeks. Transfer to secondary for two additional weeks. Add 2 tsp of cinnamon to secondary if desired. Then bottle or keg after corn sugar is added for carbonating.
