Post boil volume 0.5 2  
Going into fermentor 0.5 2  
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.

start with 2 cups water, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 lime = 9.08%
every few days, add 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 lime
---continual movement up in volume, ABV stays same.
