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

Meris Otter LME. 11/12/13 I shared this at a local homebrew competition and was told by every judge and person that tried it, if I would have entered it into the competition I would have won hands down! I will be entering into the big beer competition in February. I'll post results then.
2/10/13
I entered my all grain version of this brew at the local home brew open category, peoples choice, 1st place finish!
