I have brewed 4 batches since I started in January using Extract/Steeping/PM in a 5 gallon (canning) pot. I want to upgrade my pot to accommodate a full 6.5 gallon boil for AG brewing. I spotted a pot on craigslists for cheap, but it is a "Bayou Classic" 82 Qt stainless steel and I am not sure if that would be too big?
Are there downsides to using such a large pot for standard 5 gallon batches? I don't think I am ready yet for 10 gallon batches, but I don't really want to upgrade again. (Could this pot be too big for even 10 gallon batches?)
Any advice is appreciated.
