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

Rehydrated yeast but pitched hot (90f or so) as I did not have time to cool the wort as the yeast was already hydrated.

Straight into a swamp cooler to try and bring the temps down.

Fermented for 2 weeks in the mid 60s.

Overcarbonated resulting in harsh bitterness but this gets better all the time. After 2.5 weeks in the keg this is delicious
