So today was the first run in my new 15 gallon brew kettle. I am still running my typical 5.5 gallon batches.
When I was done today, I only had 3.5 gallons make it into the fermentor. I also tried my friends bayou classic burner as opposed to my regular turkey fryer set up.
Same type of rolling boil and boiled for 70 minutes which I calculated for.
Would the increased kettle size cause this? Weather today is about 68 degrees, lower humidity and a bit windy if that helps.
Thanks,
Joe
