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

Target Volume (Gal): 3.63      
Estimated OG: 1.043 Plato: 10.81

Raw Pre-Boil Targets - only targeted volume/gravity and evaporation
rate taken into account:
Target Volume (Gal): 3.49      
Estimated OG: 1.045 Plato: 11.22

Post-Boil Targets:
Target Volume (Gal): 3.00      
Estimated OG: 1.052 Plato: 12.97

Recorded Actuals - Measurement Taken In Kettle:
Recorded Volume (Gal): 3.50      
Recorded OG: 1.047 Plato: 11.67

At 100 percent extraction from the maximum mash potential:
Total Points: 80.69
Points From Mash: 80.69
Points From Extract/Sugar: 0.00

With the recipe efficiency setting, you should have achieved:
