Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 14.23 gal (56.9 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 2.23 gal (8.9 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 13.03 g | 52.1 qt) 12.8 51.2  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 13.03 g | 52.1 qt) 13 52  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.31 -1.3  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 1.51 6  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 14.23 g | 56.9 qt) 14 56  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.23 -0.9  
Post boil volume 12.5 50  
Top off amount 0.97 3.9  
Going into fermentor 13.47 53.9  
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.
