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

Burned some of the LME on the bottom of the pot.

OG 1.048, 5.5 gallons

With 74% attenuation, should be 4.69% ABV, FG 1.012

Forgot to add zest, etc., until after pitching the yeast.
