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): 7.55      
Estimated OG: 1.038 Plato: 9.45

Raw Pre-Boil Targets - only targeted volume/gravity and evaporation
rate taken into account:
Target Volume (Gal): 5.88      
Estimated OG: 1.048 Plato: 12.02

Post-Boil Targets:
Target Volume (Gal): 5.00      
Estimated OG: 1.057 Plato: 14.04

Recorded Actuals - Measurement Taken In Kettle:
Recorded Volume (Gal): 5.00      
Recorded OG: 1.053 Plato: 12.98

At 100 percent extraction from the maximum mash potential:
Total Points: 76.00
Points From Mash: 76.00
Points From Extract/Sugar: 0.00

With the recipe efficiency setting, you should have achieved:
