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
  • Bring 3 gallons of water to 158 degrees.
  • Steep the grains for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the grains from the pot. You may discard the grains and bring the water to a boil.
  • Remove from heat. Add extract and stir until thoroughly dissolved. Return to burner.
  • Boil for a total of 20 minutes. Add hops per schedule above.
  • Chill to less than 100 degrees.
  • Strain and funnel to fermentor.
  • Add cool tap water until desired volume or gravity is reached.
  • Pitch yeast when temperature is less than 72 degress.

  • When fermentation is complete, prime with corn sugar, table sugar or carbonation drops.
