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

Start with 4 cups of LME for boil

Add remaining fermentables at 5 minutes - remove from heat and add fermentables and return to boil for final 5 minutes

Add aroma hops after boil and steep for 10 minutes.

Add Red Star Premier Blanc Yeast to secondary fermentation
