Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 6.17 g | 24.7 qt) 2.25 9  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.19 -0.8

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.
