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

Primary fermentation at 68-70 degrees for up to one week.
Rack to secondary, 40 degrees for 10 days, add gelatin for 3 days prior to bottling.
Rack into bottling bucket and bottle, or keg and pressurize to 2.3 vols.
This beer will be crystal clear, nice head retention and mouthfeel, and just a nice hot weather beer.
