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

Actually used WPL320 couldn't find it on the list above (american Hefeweizen ale yeast).

Removed 2 gallons and placed ~ 1lbs of peaches (chopped) in that fermenter. Recipe above does not include peaches
