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

Add ~1 # DME to brew pot water to lower pH to ~5-6.

Add grits in muslin bags and grains in separate muslin bags to 2.5 gallons spring water and bring to 150 deg., start 60 minute steep.

Remove steeping grains at 30 minutes, steep grits for additional 30 minutes.

Remove grits and bring to boil. Boil for 60 minutes total, performing hop, whirl floc and nutrient additions when necessary.

Add remaining DME and turbinado when 10 minutes left to boil.

Cool to 85 deg, combine with room temp (72 deg) water to achieve ~75 deg wort, check and adjust original gravity and pitch yeast.

Ferment at 65-70 deg.

Won 1st place in combined category, Historical/Smoked/German Wheat @ 2016 Philly Homebrew Cup.

Won 1st Place Judge's vote and 1st place popular vote at the 2016 Indian Valley Beer Fest.
