Quick Water Requirements

Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 5.61 g | 22.4 qt) 2.58 10.3  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 5.61 g | 22.4 qt) 2.66 10.6  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.13 -0.5

Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.03 -0.1  
Post boil volume 4.5 18  
Going into fermentor 4.5 18  
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.    
Total: 2.58 10.3
Equipment Profile Used: System Default
 
Notes

OG was closer to 1.05 and 12 Brix/Plato.
Will add Cinnamon and Cloves as vodka tinctures after one week.
