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

Wyeast Urquell Lager yeast (2001) has been discontinued. Use 2278, 2782 or 2000 instead.

Carapils amount is over Breiss recommended limit of 1-5%. Could be too much head, thick mouth feel (too much body), a bit sweeter as less fermentable, and may dilute the “primary” flavours in the recipe. Adding more hops could compensate for the sweetness apparently.

Need at least 2 yeast liquid packs, in 2.5 ltr starter at 1.040.
