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

Get 8lbs of strawberries. Crush them and then freeze them until primary fermentation is done. Once fermentation is complete thaw the strawberries and place them at the bottom of your sterilized secondary. Rack the beer from the primary into the secondary. Wait 3 weeks then bottle.
