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

Brewing day went perfectly. next morning flocculation was very violent. Had to purchase Blow-0ff tubes. $8.00

Solution: Purchase 2 big mouth Bubblers. 6.5 gal. $60 ea.

  • This one actually blew the tri-piece airlock off. Had to run out to HD first thing.

    PS this is how I found out that HD does not open until 0800 on Sundays. :(
