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

Grains are limited to 8lbs for a 4g boil pot.

Steep grains: 3 gallons of 170F water(will cool quickly), stir-in all grains, remove heat and wrap with insulation for 90mins, (stir every 20mins). Iodine test for conversion. Pour warm grains into the fermentor through a BIAB bag which is over a colander to strain the grains out. Sparge with 1/2g of 170F water, OK to squeeze the bag, Return that wort to the boiler (clean the fermentor & sterilize). Bring that wort to a boil, hop as usual.

Extracts go into the boil in last 10min to keep their color light. slowly to avoid a boil-over
