Quick Water Requirements
Water Liters
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 37.4 L) 35.9
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 37.4 L) 40.2
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -6.5
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 30.9 L) 29.4
Boil off losses -5.7
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.2
Post boil volume 25
Going into fermentor 25
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.
