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

Divided Wort into two 2.5 gal carboys.
Deep Amber-brown color, much more bitterness than the IBUs suggest. Need to reduce the 60min hop addition.
Minimal hop aroma, needs dry hopping.
Still a very tasty, bitter ale.
