Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 7.22 g | 28.9 qt) 4.68 18.7  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 7.22 g | 28.9 qt) 4.8 19.2  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.19 -0.8

Going into fermentor 6 24  
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

Trying a Winter brewed Lager for drinking in the summer. Created a Starter of the Yeast in a 600ml flask the day before to get my cell count up.
