I am ready to make the switch to all grain and I am getting together all of my equipment. I have only been doing 5-gallon batches so far but once I switch to ag I plan to do 10 gallon. I have a friend who often brews with me, I like to keg he likes to bottle. This way we each get to have 5-gallons. I have also been thinking about making a kegerator out of an old fridge to keep at our shop. So when he isn't brewing with me I can have a keg at home and a keg at the shop. Anyway, 10 gallon batches it will be.
So in buying this stuff I want to make sure I never have to "upgrade" from it. I have been eyeing the megapot from NB, but I don't know whether to get the 15 or 20 gallon pot. I am sure 15 gallons will be enough to hold the wort for a 10 gallon batch but I have heard that ag has a lot more boil over. So if you were buying the last pot you were ever going to buy would you get the 20 or is that overkill? The difference is like $27, so I am leaning towards the bigger one.
