Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 6.24 g | 25 qt) 2.21 8.8  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 6.24 g | 25 qt) 2.37 9.5

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

Basil scent is evident when you open the bottle. Not too bitter, but would probably use less basil next time. Honey Malt sweetens a little bit. Would use a Pilsner Malt next time.
