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

Notes:
Ferment at 66 degrees
Raise to 68 for 3 days

Then raise it 1 degree a day until you get to 72. You will reach 72 degrees after one week. However on the 3rd day, at the end of the third day you need to add the dry hops and keep them on the beer for 10 days.

After those 10 days are up. It will have fermented for 14 days (two weeks)and will be ready to be bottled. We shall remove dry hops and auto siphon the bucket using a fine mesh hop bag on it to strain out any trub. Add priming sugar into the bottling bucket and bottle.
***********
This is meant to be a really really HOPPY brown ale. I hate brown ales so I'm hoping this is something more along the lines of DFH's Indian Brown Ale or maybe Grand Teton's Bitch Creek. I've never done a brown before so this will be a learning experience.

Some of the core parts of the grain bill were taken from a podcast on Brown Ales I heard.
