Pre-boil Volume Temperature

[Small Wave]

Quick question - In the recipe editor, if checking the Auto calculate for estimated pre-boil volume, is the number listed taking into account any sort of thermal expansion assuming the wort being measured is somewhere in the 150-170 range? Or should I be adding an extra ~2% or so when visually measuring as it fills my kettle.

I believe water expands about 4% from room temp to boil. Not enough to worry about.

The recipe editor does not make any adjustments for thermal expansion at this time.
