Boil water added to kettle (equipment estimates 2.94 g | 11.7 qt) 2.86 11.4  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.39 1.6  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 3.33 g | 13.3 qt) 3.25 13  
Boil off losses    
Post boil volume 3.33 13.3  
Hops absorption losses (whirlpool, hop stand) -0.08 -0.3  
Going into fermentor 3.25 13  
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.
