First, sorry if this has been addressed before, but I tried to find an answer and have had no luck. I just received my larger kettle and I want to do full boils. I have been using a 5 gallon kettle and topping off to five gallons. With the trub, I am only getting around 40 beers after I transfer. My question is, can I start with 6 gallons in my kettle and figure 1/2 a gallon loss to boil off and another 1/2 gallon to trub? Will it water down my beer using an extract kit?
