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

Brewing Notes:

Steep grains in 1.5 gal. of 155° F water for 40 minutes. Sparge w/ half gallon of 170 deg water. Drain steeping grains by pouring sparge water over grains, but don't squeeze. Add 1 gal of water and bring to boil. Turn off heat and add Light DME and stir well to dissolve malt. Turn on heat and bring to boil and start 60 min boil and hop schedule. 5 min left in boil, add zest to muslin bag and leave in wort until dumping into the fermentor.
Cool wort with chiller to 80 F. Add sterilized water to equal 5.5 gallons. Pitch yeast.
Zest Ingredients: 2 naval oranges, 1 valencia oranges 1 red grapefruit, 2 lemons and 4 limes.
