beersmith clarification with biab Total water.

[mggray87]

is the top total water the total water 8.56g I need to fill my kettle for my Biab no sparge brew? so my salts would be based on that number? or half way down my image it shows mash volume needed. 9.42g. I'm confused. I'm to new to this stuff LOL

The mash volume needed includes the displacement of the grain bill. The water is the volume before the grain is added.

Thank you. I'll ignore the mash volume then. And worry about the total water. Appreciate it
