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

Instead of Molasses I used Lyles Black Treacle. The last 5 days before bottling I added the champagne yeast because I was worried the london yeast would not carbonate.
