Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 41.84 gal (167.35 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 29.84 gal (119.35 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle 50.59 202.4  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 50.59 g | 202.4 qt) 56.19 224.8  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -8.75 -35  
Pre boil volume 41.84 167.4  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.34 -1.4  
Post boil volume 40 160  
Going into fermentor 40 160  
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.
