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

Primary for one week.

Transfer to Secondary on top of thawed raspberries. (make sure to get pure raspberries, no additives i.e. no extra sugars)

NOTE
Should read 5 days for the fruit in the secondary, not 5 minutes. I just couldn't find where to change it to days.

Original recipe calls for 6.5 pounds of DME, I upped how much I wanted to raise the ABV. I also modified the attenuation to try and raise the ABV, I'll make sure to note what I actually get.
