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

Long Airlock activity with this yeast.
Final gravity was 1.008
Keg/Force Co2


Made this beer for my wife. Beer came out really good and clean flavor. Not to filling and refreshing during the summer. Will definitely make this one again. Put a semi-squeezed Orange slice in to kick up the flavor. Relax and enjoy.
