10 Gallon pot. That's just a hair over 9 gallons in the pot. I do 90 minute boils and usually end up with around 6.1 gallons in the kettle. 5.25 gallons goes into fermenter, a liter goes towards a a starter, and the rest goes to compost due to whirlpooling.

Similar to what my last brew was. 9 gallons, 2 liters to a starter so 8.5 in kettle, 90 minute boil and 6.5 to carboy.....you lose a lot in the boil. I would've thought with the humidity down there, you'd lose less than me.
