Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 5.86 g | 23.5 qt) 5.74 22.9  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 5.86 g | 23.5 qt) 5.8 23.2  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.09 -0.4  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.92 3.7  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 6.69 g | 26.8 qt) 6.56 26.2  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.19 -0.8  
Post boil volume (equipment estimates 5 g | 20 qt) 5.63 22.5  
Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 5.63 g | 22.5 qt) 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.

Notes

This is the extract kit I bought for my first homebrew. Different hop profiles and fermentables exist.
