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.

Place in a sink of cool water and wait for 10-15 mins
Pour the contents of the saucepan into the fermenter and top up to 23l with chilled water
Stir vigorously to aerate
Add the yeast when the liquid is around 20 degrees C
On day 4 of fermentation add the Dextrose.
