I plan to brew my first 10 gallon Batch. I have a 48 quart Rectangular Ice chest Mash Tun with a copper manifold. Will a 28lb grain bill fit? I usually mash at 1.25 quart/lb. and batch sparge. Beersmith shows 36 quarts mash in.
I think I can do it, but I will probably have to mash out at less than 168º in first runnings due to limited space - or do a fakey fly sparge to get the mash out temp up.
Would you attempt this?
