Hi,
I'm new to brewing but I want to get started with the right equipment from the beginning.
I aim to go all grain in the future for 5 gallon batches at a time.
Is a 10 or 15 gallon better?
I've heard that for 5 gallon batches the boil-off (evaporation) is too much in a 15 gallon. I've also heard that 10 gallons will be too small for all grain and there are boil over issues.
I'm essentially looking to buy a single brew kettle (a good one) one time.
Thanks for any thoughts on this,
Ken
