I have a Coleman 36q Xtreme cooler that I plan on converting to mash in.
I've seen the "rackers" calculater and someone posted a chart. Rackers said my tun can handle up to 23lbs of grain, and the chart said my tun can handle a 5 gallon batch with an OG of 1.13 I think.
I don't intend on making really big beers all the time, especially since I only have a 7.5 gallon kettle... but I would like to make some 8-9% IPA's and stouts.
I don't intend on making 10 gallon batches, so is the tun I have sufficient enough to make 5 gallons batches of basically anything? Or will I have some limitations?
