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

The boiling hops were ones I just had laying around, but still fit the style profile.

The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. Add the first hop addition as soon as the wort reaches a full boil and then start your timer.

Add Belgian candi syrup and Irish moss with 15 minutes left in the boil.

Provide the wort with plenty of oxygen before pitching to ensure a healthy fermentation

Chill the wort to 68 °F (20 °C) and ferment at 68 °F (20 °C) for the first few days until the main fermentation is complete. Then let it free rise.
