Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 5.97 g | 23.9 qt) 7.16 28.6  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 5.97 g | 23.9 qt) 7.24 29  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.13 -0.5  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.47 1.9  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 6.32 g | 25.3 qt) 7.5 30  
Boil off losses -0.75 -3  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.05 -0.2  
Post boil volume (equipment estimates 5.52 g | 22.1 qt) 6.8 27.2  
Hops absorption losses (whirlpool, hop stand) -0.02 -0.1  
Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 6.78 g | 27.1 qt) 5.5 22  
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.
