Re: 15 gal. vs 20 gal. Brew Kettle

Mon Sep 03, 2012 6:43 am

I'd go for the 20. I do about a 13.5 to 14.5 boil to end with 11-12 gallons in my 15 gallon kettle and would really like end with 12 gallons. If it was in the budget 20 all the way.

I'd go 20 . You could always do split batches and get two beers for the effort of one
