Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 21.71 gal (86.85 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 9.71 gal (38.85 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle 29.06 116.2  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 29.06 g | 116.2 qt) 33.92 135.7  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -7.59 -30.4  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.25 1  
Pre boil volume 21.71 86.8  
Boil off losses -3 -12  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.71 -2.9  
Post boil volume 18 72  
Going into fermentor 18 72  
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.
