So after a year and a half of extract brewing (~15 batches), I am finally ready to move on to all grain. After looking at all the different ways of going all-grain, I tend to like the looks of the brew in a bag method. I live in an apartment, so not much room, and it looks promising as a way to get introduced to all grain
90% of the batches I do are 2.5 gallons. My current brewpot is 5gal(20qt) stainless. Would this be big enough to do these 2.5 gallon batches?
I figure the biggest beer I would ever make would be an IPA, so I am looking at roughly ~7lbs of grain max for a 2.5 gallon batch. I'm just not sure if that 5gal brewpot would be enough. Would love not to have to buy another bigger pot.
thanks
