I am setting up my new equipment. Doing single vessle, BIAB in 10g Blichmann with boil coil. Not sure what the difference is between:
Kettle Losses-The amount of liquid (and gunk) left behind in your kettle in quarts or liters. Can be thought of as trub losses.
Mash Lauter Tun Losses-Amount of liquid left behind in your lauter/mash tun in quarts or liters.

Maybe they are the same or one is N/A in my set up? Just want to account for the ~1 quart left over after boil that does not go into fermenter. I am guessing it would go in either, but not both?

Yes. When using a separate mash tun and boil kettle, each have their own losses. But in your setup, mash tun losses are zero. Of course, there are other losses such as grain absorption.
