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

Started with 20l of water for the steeping stage.

Lost approx 1-2l to the grains for the steep and a further 2l to the boil.

Ended up with 16l of wort at 1.084 before adjusting OG to 1.063 by adding 7l of additional water.

After fermentation, FG was 1.012 giving an ABV of 6.69%, bottled 31 x 500ml bottles from the batch, leaving behind the trub and covering wort.

Very smooth and drinkable beer that hides it's ABV! Doesn't taste like it has an IBU even close to 68 (I'd have said 50-55ish).
