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

Mini mash flaked oats and flaked wheat using BrewBag.

(BrewBag brand) Hop sock used for hops, coriander(pan toasted and crushed), orange peel and 3 bags chamomile tea.

Flavor improved from not sitting on the hops and spices during fermentation.
