I am in the process of building out a 10bbl brewhouse and am trying to determine the ideal grain bed depth so I know what size to make my MLT.
I feel that a target original gravity of 17 plato should net roughly a 7.6% alcohol beer. It’s a good number to shoot for because I will probably do some 5% beers and maybe a 9 or 10% if needed.
I have a beginning malt bill to make that happen of about 950 lbs. At that malt bill, we will shoot for a 24” grain bed by calculating the volume of mash. Can anyone confirm if I am on the right track or not?
If anyone could provide some input I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!
