Hi,I'm building a 2 bbl brewery from stainless water heaters. The tanks are about 20" in diameter and about 42" tall, circular tanks. Is the height to width ratio ok to mash about 110 lbs (50 kg) of Grain? Or will it result in stuck mash? The filter in the bottom will be a false bottom from morebeer to cover the 20".

Thanks for any input, all information is appreciated to enlighten my mash path :)
