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

Ferment at high temp - 73-76 - to get the banana flavor to come out in the brew.

Add real bananas - mashed - into 2ndary if more banana flavor needed.

Add more vanilla at bottling if desired, but be careful as it can be overwhelming.
