what is the max gallon I can brew with a 30 gallon system

[Pdaigle]

Looking to build a electrical system just not sure how many gallons I want to g with. I've been told to get double the size of the quantity of gallon if you want to brew so for example if I want to brew 15 gallon I would go with a 30 gallon system. Can someone input here please.

cheers!

I'd bet you could easily get 20 gallons out of a 30 gallon setup. I often do 12 gal batches with my 15.5 gal setup

Totally depends on the size of the beer. Your limited by what you can mash, not boil. So you can make a much larger batch of 3% mild than 12% barley wine.

I can do 10 gallons easily in 15 gal keggles.
