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

6/19 - Brew Day.. Mofro Channel.. Pretty dark for a Kolsch.
6/21 - Moved to secondary fermentation.. Darker than expected.. Alcohol % a bit low...OG 1.04, FG 1.015, x131.25 = 3.28%
