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

I first soured the wort by adding a carton of Goodbelly Pomegranate/Blackberry for 24 hours before pitching 2 packs of WYeast French Saison.
