So I purchased a 7.5 gallon stock pot from a local brew supply store, but all the beer extract kits instructions always say to boil anywhere from 2.5 to 3 gallons of water, then add the water to the carboy after. Had I known what I know now I would have picked a 5 gallon, especially because I'm brewing on an electric stove. Is there any benefit in a 7.5 gallon pot, or was I just conned into spending an extra 35 dollars for an extra gallon and a half?
