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
  • Add 2 Lbs DME Light/Amber for Starter in 10 Liters Water.
  • LME and final 3 lbs Corn Sugar at 20 minutes.
  • Spices at 10 minutes.
  • Previous (tasty) version used Belgian Ardennes 3522.
  • After primary fermentation is done, boil 2 cinnamon sticks and 15 allspice berries for 10 minutes in 1 cup of water. Cool, remove spices to hops bag, and add bag and steeped liquor to fermentation bucket.
