Heat water added to kettle 5.96 23.8  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 5.96 g | 23.8 qt) 6.08 24.3

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.
