Hey Guys,
So, I have been brewing 5 gallon batches and they are just going to quickly for the amount of time it takes to make them. If I was the only one drinking the beer it wouldn't be a big deal but everyone likes to come over and drink the home brew...which is part of the fun for me in the hobby. OK...lets get to the point.
I have 3, 8 gallon kettles right now. Typically when I do my mash I don't put more than 3 1/5 gallons of water in my mash tun and another 3 to 4 in my hot liqour tank to get about 6 or so gallons of pre-boiled wort. My question is to up my game to 10 gallon batches is all I really need is one 15 gallon boil kettle and the other two pots can stay at the 8 gallon size?? b/c there is still plenty of room in both of them if they are only half full for 5 gallon batches..
Please help!
