Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 13.16 gal (52.65 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 1.16 gal (4.65 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 15.6 g | 62.4 qt) 15.94 63.8  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 15.6 g | 62.4 qt) 17.5 70  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -2.44 -9.8  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 13.16 g | 52.6 qt) 13.5 54  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.16 -0.6  
Post boil volume (equipment estimates 11.5 g | 46 qt) 12 48  
Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 12 g | 48 qt) 11.5 46  
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.
