I have a 5 gallon pot, and do 2.5 gal BIAB batches. I would like to do a big barleywine SMASH but am not sure how much grain I can mash. Any thoughts? Recipe recommendations also welcome.
If I do 1.5qt/lb, then 10lbs of grain would only need 15qt water to mash. Can I fit 10lbs of grain and 3.5 gallons of water in a 5 gal kettle? Then I could do a sparge/rinse to get up to my 3.5-4 gallon preboil volume.
