Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 16.61 gal (66.45 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 4.61 gal (18.45 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 20.36 g | 81.5 qt) 18.75 75  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 20.36 g | 81.5 qt) 21.15 84.6  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -3.75 -15  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 16.61 g | 66.5 qt) 15 60  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.11 -0.5  
Post boil volume 15 60  
Hops absorption losses (whirlpool, hop stand) -0.08 -0.3  
Top off amount 0.08 0.3  
Going into fermentor 15 60  
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.
