Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 13.6 gal (54.41 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 1.6 gal (6.41 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 12.78 g | 51.1 qt) 6.18 24.7  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 12.78 g | 51.1 qt) 6.5 26  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.5 -2  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 1.32 5.3  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 13.6 g | 54.4 qt) 7 28  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.1 -0.4  
Post boil volume 12 48  
Going into fermentor 12 48  
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.
