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

Measured original gravity was 1.072. Measured final gravity was 1.01.

2 smack packs of Wyeast 3711, no starter.

Tastes pretty good, but not perfect. Kind of a mix between a belgian and a farmhouse, rather than the light/fruity/hoppy farmhouse I was targeting. Next time will not make it as malty, and will use a bit more dry hop.
