Making the Sterling Cab. I added the water as per the instructions, I have one question though. There is a note that says that for Sterling wines, tank should now be filled to 24.5L. Does this mean that I add more water to fill it to 24.5L? Or is that just referencing what the level should be at? I added water to get it to 24.5L because that's how I read it, I just hope I did it right.

Does this kit have a grape pack?

Its a 6 gallon kit so you add the juice to the primary, then water to 23L then if there is a grape pack you add that on top and its the grape pack that will bring the volume up to ~24.5L as they are usually 1.5L in size.
