Just thought I would post this as I have just finished brewing this.
Did a double mash 5kg of grain 64 degrees for 60 mins in auto. Quit put into manual at 62 degrees sparged with 6 litres. Back into auto another 5 kg of grains 64 for 60 mins 75 for 5 sparge with 9.5 litres and boil for 2 hours.
Got an og of 1.101 and from what I can tell a 76% efficiency. Not bad for a first attempt at this!
It took 6.5 hours all up but not that bad really I was going to add malt extract instead of double mash but Chris at G&G convinced me otherwise.
So it is possible for big beers on the 20l just a bit of work!
