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

OG 1.047, calculation off possibly due to honey.

SG 1.001 on 17 Jan 19 6.06% ABV

Added SuperKleer on 18 Jan.

Despite low FG, beer is not "dry", and has a nice hop flavor from the Saaz.

Bottled 29 Jan 2019, 5oz corn sugar
