I'll start by saying this isn't meant to be a flame war or anything.
I'm just curious why some people do large batches of beer. It seems to be common advice to brewers upgrading their equipment to five gallon batches to get big enough equipment to go with 10 gallon batches, since they're likely to get there eventually.
So why do you do big batches?
Or why do you do small batches?
For this discussion (and poll), big batches are considered 10 or more gallons and small batches are considered 5-6 or less gallons. If you do between 6 and 10 gallon batches, choose 'other.'
