this is a recipe that I am planning to brew. I just want some input. Can I ched is abrew this using my 10 gallon rubbermaid mash tun, or will I need to use some extract in place of some base grains? does the recipe look like it will turn out good? also planning on using the espresso and bacon for 10 days in secondary.

I count 22 lbs of grain...no problem to do in your 10 gallon cooler. I've done as much as 23 lbs in mine.
