How Much Does Size Matter?

you guys don't think this way: gee that widmers/blue moon/fat tire/sn clone sounds good. these are my favorite beers so if 5 gals is good, 10 is better! especially when a keg only lasts 2 weeks (2 pints a day(VERY CONSERVATIVE)).

I don't because for me it's way more about the process of brewing than 'having beer'. The bigger the batches...the less often I'd be able to brew.

You just need more people to help you drink it. :rockin:

I do 10 gallon batches for the house beers. Basically any recipe that's been a proven winner ( A gotta have beer in stock). The reason for the 10 gallon is that I want some in my keezer (5g keg) and also some in in my 3gallon cornie for transporting to a party. The 10 gallons allows me to fill the 5g, 3g, and some bottles. Works out perfectly.

I do need more people to drink it... from tap! I don't enjoy bottling so taking a whole bunch to work or something is not for me. Anyway I can brew 10 gallon batches, but I normally do 5 gallon, pipeline is full as is. That's why I now have 3 five gallon ferments full of stuff that needs to age a year.
