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

Other Yeast Options:
White Labs 575, Wyeast 1762, Fermentis S-33

Steep grains in 2 – 2½ gallons of water in your brew pot at 155°F for 10-15 minutes. Remove and rinse.

Immediately add (pitch) your yeast when the wort is at or below 78F (when the fermenter no longer feels warm to the touch).

If using a carboy, attach stopper and blow-off tubing and run the other end into water in a container to collect excess foam (blow-off). Make sure stopper is dry so that it creates a firm seal in the neck of the carboy. After blow-off has subsided (24-48 hours.) replace tubing with a sanitized airlock 1/2 full of water. If fermenting in a plastic bucket, attach lid and airlock 1/2 full of water.
