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

4 oz of Brewer’s Best liquid grapefruit flavoring is added to the secondary along with dry hops.

One week primary then transfer. Another week in secondary before kegging at serving pressure for 3-4 days.

Citrus flavors are awesome but not overwhelming. Perfect summer beer.

Note: The “amber” LME is actually Maris Otter LME. I couldn’t find the appropriate option in the pull down menu.
