Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 6.21 g | 24.9 qt) 3.35 13.4  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 6.21 g | 24.9 qt) 3.36 13.4

Post boil volume 5.25 21  
Going into fermentor 5.25 21  
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.
