You can start with 3 gallons of water, boil for an hour and measure what's left.
Or if you're pressed for time.... start w/ 1 gallon and boil for 15 mins. Multiply by 4.
Rate should be the same... Though early losses from preboil heat might skew things a bit for smaller volume and boil time...
But it should get you into the right ball park...
Then, when you do your *real* batch, you measure more carefully and adjust your equipment profile for the next batch.
It's an iterative process to dial in all of your equipment & process parameters... Boil off, grain absorption (bag squeeze vs no squeeze?), kettle losses (dump it all into fermenter vs leave trub in kettle?, efficiency (mash, lauter, brewhouse), etc.
It'll take a few batches to figure everything out... But in the meantime you'll make beer... if even if you don't hit all your numbers on the first try, like the rest of us did
Keep good notes and tweak each time until you get to where you want to be... And enjoy the journey (as well as the beer)
