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

Ferment for 7 days, transfer to secondary and leave until fermentation stops. Add Gelatin (optional) and cold crash for 3 days prior to bottling. Add priming sugar, bottle, and condition 21 days at 72 degrees. Chill 3 days, open, and love it!!
