Quick Water Requirements
Water Liters
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 18.6 L) 16.8
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 18.6 L) 18.6
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -2.6
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 15.9 L) 14.2
Boil off losses -5.7
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.2
Post boil volume 10

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.  
Total: 16.8

Notes

Whirlpool aroma hops for an extra 15 minutes after flameout.

Water temperature 17-->21°C gradient, time to reach FG was approximately 4-5 days. Then 2 more days at 21°C ('diacetyl rest').
