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

clean and drinkable but according to judges, is a little thin compared to style. Recommend adding an additional pound of DME and maybe a little carafoam to add body and mouthfeel. Many stout junkies at local home brew shop very much enjoyed this one, didn't recommend any changes unless I was to enter it in competition.
