I've a 19l stock pot which is used for mashing and sparging. Is there a simple way to calculate the maximum weight of grain I can put in the bag? I'm planning a strong stout to yield, after liquoring, back 20l in the fermenter.
Thanks in advance,
John
How much grain can I mash?

Depends on your mash thickness . Standard is 2.5l per kg (I think?), so you could almost do 6kg of grain, assuming you have no dead space
You could of course do a bit thicker mash and batch sparge one more time
