Always weigh your ingredients. Your not screwed but you'll want to invest in a digital scale so you can acuurately measure/weigh your ingredients.
 
Yeah measurements are by weight. My guess is 11 oz (liquid space) of grain might be just a little low but generally in the ballpark of 11 oz dry weight... Relax it'll be fine, def not royally screwed.
