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

used 4 or 5 cinnamon sticks and a loose cup of sliced ginger root for flavoring. 1 lb of maltodextrine sugar for thickening and head retention in 60 min boil. Would recommend about half the ginger root if not big ginger fan.
