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 on 12/28/17
Mash grains for 60 minutes (starting temp 160 F, ending 150 F). Add 8 lbs LME to boiling H2O, return to boil. Add 2 oz Tettnanger hop pellets, boil 30 minutes. Add 1 lb, 12 oz DME and wort from partial mash, return to boil. Add 0.5 oz Saaz pellets, boil 15 minutes. Add Irish moss, boil 15 minutes. Total boil = 60 minutes. Cool in cold water bath. Pitch rehydrated yeast.

Sg = 1081
Rg = 1026 on 1/13/18
Bg = 1024 on 2/19/18

Notes: Fermentation stuck at 1024, despite multiple attempts to kick-start to finish including warming the beer, adding CBC-1 and additional Fermaid K. Resulting beer is a bit too sweet for style.
