Hi,
After about 6 months now of brewing on my 20lt BM and been trying to get 20 litres of 1060+ with 5kg of malt only from a mash and 90 min boil i have found that the rig has its limitations........or does it. Yes piling in the malt will reduce efficiency and i will likley have to stir it a few times and have a much longer sparge, im ok with all those things.
Looking for some input from those that have pushed the limit on there 20lt BM and possibly share your experiences? Starting volume is a question/concern.
Planned Brew is a Golden IPA
OG - 1075
ABV - 7.2%
IBU - 75
EBC - 6
PIlsner 7kg
Galaxy Hops - 75 IBU
Not sure if i should have a few other malts for the bill and weather to just do a 10min Hop addition or run with my usual 60,15, Steeping of the Hops h34r:
