Quick Water Requirements

Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 6.01 g | 24 qt) 1.87 7.5  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 6.01 g | 24 qt) 1.93 7.7  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.09 -0.4  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.72 2.9  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 6.63 g | 26.5 qt) 2.5 10  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.13 -0.5  
Post boil volume 5 20  
Going into fermentor 5 20  
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.
