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

Yeast used was 2 packets of Mangrove Jack's Workhorse Yeast. Based on their website, Medium flocculation and High attenuation. Stirred 2 packets in 200mL of water at 90 degrees.

Mixed canned pumpkin with honey and baked at 350 for 60 minutes. Let cool, placed in nylon grain bag and boiled for 60 minutes.

Steeped specialty grains in 2 gallons of water 150 - 160 for 30 minutes. Sparged with 1 gallon of water 170.

Was only left with 2 gallons of wort after straining into fermenter. Added 3.5 gallons of water to bring total to 5.5. OG was 1.068 not 1.079 as calculated when assuming 35% steeping grains efficiency. May have been due to wort loss because of boiled pumpkin? Finished at 1.020.

Sliced Vanilla Beans lengthwise and scraped out seeds and everything inside into 4 oz of vodka. Chopped bean into 1/4 inch pieces and added to solution as well. Marinated for 1 week and then added to secondary.

Add .5 tsp of Capella's Graham Cracker Extract to secondary. Add the other .5 tsp to bottling bucket.
