So I went ahead and purchased most of the equipment on the list that I laid out on here the other week. Thanks again to all those who gave some input.
I just got my Bayou Classic 1064 Stainless 16-Gallon Stockpot, and I'm wondering if I went too big.
I had imagined I would do some 5 gallon batches with the thing, but upon seeing the actual size of the kettle, it looks like I get maybe 6 inches off the bottom of the pot before I hit the 5 gallon mark.
Is this going to be feasible to get some 5 gallon all-grain batches out of? Is it going to be possible to BIAB with only 6 inches between the water and the bottom? Should I think about returning it?
