Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
WARNING: Boil kettle capacity (12 gal | 48 qt) exceeded. Volume required: 498.7 gal (1994.8 qt). Suggest reducing initial water volume to 12 gal (48 qt) and adding 486.7 gal (1946.8 qt) sparge/top-off.    
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 512.58 g | 2050.3 qt) 533.88 2135.5  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 512.58 g | 2050.3 qt) 558.28 2233.1  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -38.13 -152.5  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 24.25 97  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 498.7 g | 1994.8 qt) 520 2080  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6

Top off amount 7.26 29  
Going into fermentor 496 1984  
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.
