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

Brew day - 08/16/20

OG: 1.078

Bottled on 8/29/20
FG: 1.015
ABV: 8.3%

Added the rum to the bottling bucket, along with the priming solution. Really liking the subtleness of the rum in my sample. I really think this one will be special once it's carbonated and aged a little. I'll do a comparison of the actual DB from Founders once it's ready.

Brew day - 9/17/22
Added 1 lb brown sugar to the malt bill. Also added .5 lb Quaker rolled oats to the steeping grains.

Nailed my target OG: 1.092

Kegged on 10/23 after 3 weeks in secondary.

Final Gravity: 1.026

ABV: 8.66%
