Going into fermentor 5.5 22  
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

For the vanilla beans, I cut them open and scraped out the insides, mixing it into the cooled wart, then dropped in the bean husks.
