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

BREWED: 10/7/16
SECONDARY FERMENTATION: 10/14
This secondary was infused with mashed (pureed?) frozen blueberrys.

The cooking: the wheat and crystal converted its starches for 45min @ 170-150 degrees. Then sparged into spare pot and sat for the duration of the brew (about 1 more hour) in around 120F.

3 weeks old as of 10/29/16 gravity reading as of date 1.008 !

considering yeast starter next time.

BOTTLED: 11/05
