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

Puree is with the raisins and whole leaf cascade hops, first mix them in second pot on stove with 12oz boiling water (when water boils, turn off heat source and add raisins and hops and let cool while stirring). Use food processor to puree this mixture to a thin consistency to add directly to the main boiling wort pot, 5 minutes before end of boil.

Aerate the wort in fermenter prior to yeast pitching very well, for 1 minute.

After 4-5 days when vigorous fermentation slows, add champagne yeast with yeast nutrient, brown sugar and dry hops (centinnial). Aerate gently. Let secondary fermentation go for another 2-3 weeks before bottling.

Bottle condition for weeks, age for a long time.

All brown sugar should be light brown sugar.
