Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 6.25 g | 25 qt) 2.21 8.8

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

Pitched at 62 deg F
I called this Glass Breaker as suggested by my wife after I accidentally broke her heirloom glass mixing bowl during the brew day.
