Quick Water Requirements

Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 3.89 g | 15.6 qt) 3.36 13.4

Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 2.95 g | 11.8 qt) 2.5 10  
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

Add cranberry puree/8 oz 100% cranberry juice 3 days into fermentation. Ferment at 70 degrees for 4 days, then bump to 76 to complete attenuation.
