Ok, so we're on our 5th AG, and b/c of various constraints we've decided to do a partigyle that will give us 5 gal of high grav and 10 gal of low/medium grav (by our standards). I'm not worried at all about the partigyle part of this, actually.
We have a 70qt Coleman eXtreme MLT. That's 17.5 gallons. I'm thinking 40 lbs of grain is our theoretical max in this MLT. At 1.25 qt/lb the "can I mash it" calculator says it will take 15.7 gal.
My question: are we leaving enough space? Are we really going to be able to do 40lbs in a 70 qt cooler at 1.25 qt/lb?
