Quick Water Requirements
Water Liters
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 36.3 L) 34.8
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 36.3 L) 38.1
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -5
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 31.3 L) 29.8
Boil off losses -5.7
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.1
Post boil volume 25.5
Hops absorption losses (whirlpool, hop stand) -0.5
Going into fermentor 25
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.
