Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 3.95 g | 15.8 qt) 3.38 13.5  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 3.95 g | 15.8 qt) 3.62 14.5  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.38 -1.5

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.
