Efficiency Specifics
Recipe Efficiency Setting: 75 %

With sparge water, mash water, additional infusions, vessel losses, top-up
water and evaporation rate recorded in the Water Needed Calculator:

Target Volume (Gal): 13.70      
Estimated OG: 1.042 Plato: 10.47

Raw Pre-Boil Targets - only targeted volume/gravity and evaporation
rate taken into account:
Target Volume (Gal): 11.76      
Estimated OG: 1.049 Plato: 12.12

Post-Boil Targets:
Target Volume (Gal): 10.00      
Estimated OG: 1.058 Plato: 14.16

Recorded Actuals - Measurement Taken In Kettle:
