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

Aiming for a holiday spiced strong ale. Will ferment in primary two weeks, secondary another four, and then keg condition to drink around Christmas. May put the spices in vodka, instead.
