Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 2.67 g | 10.7 qt) 1.67 6.7  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 2.67 g | 10.7 qt) 1.68 6.7  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.02 -0.1  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.14 0.6  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 2.8 g | 11.2 qt) 1.8 7.2  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.05 -0.2  
Post boil volume (equipment estimates 1.25 g | 5 qt) 1.38 5.5  
Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 1.38 g | 5.5 qt) 1.25 5  
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.

Notes

Source: Briess Malting.
Dry hop fermentation day 2 - 6.
The recipe calls for WLP090 for fermentation, I'm using Verdant to emphasize hop flavors.
This recipe is a demo for Learn to Homebrew Day. Take bottling equipment to demo packaging small batches. Bottle-condition using standard procedure (1 sugar cube per 16 oz bottle).
Did not come out dark enough, increase Midnight Wheat.
