Quick Water Requirements
Water Liters
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 9 L) 7.4
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 9 L) 7.5
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.1
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 1.2
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 10.1 L) 8.5
Boil off losses -1.4
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.1
Post boil volume 8.5
Going into fermentor 8.5
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

A nice small batch of 8.5 liters. Has a nice florally/fruity hit from the short boil and usage of Galaxy hops for both bitterness and aroma.
