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

Literally just looking to make an easy, cheap, and light beer.

2 gallons of tap water warmed up.
15 minute Oat steep @ ~172°F.
Added DME after removed the bag of oats (this got the volume back up to 2 gallons -- with some water added).
Had a slight boil over after adding the Saaz, sadly. Wasn't much thankfully.

OG ended up being a 1.032 at a temperature of 75.4°.
FG ended up being a 1.004 at a temperature of 73.9°.

Added a half teaspoon mixed with one cup hot water (~170°F) to the keg.
