Quick Water Requirements
Water Liters
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 25 L) 24.1
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 25 L) 24.7
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -1
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 1.9
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 25.9 L) 25
Boil off losses -5.7
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.2
Post boil volume (equipment estimates 20 L) 21
Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 21 L) 20
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

Loosely based on my Ripper Clone recipe I wanted to make a quick and cheap extract brew. I like my Ripper Clone but it was nothing like Ripper - except for the ABV.
