That takes very careful regulation of heat and a lot of stirring as it comes up to avoid a boil-over.
8 gal is the minimum I would say to use.

All grain? If so, what gravity?
dmashl said:Yes, all grain. Use a 5 gallon mash tun. no more than 12 lbs grain(usually 10-11 lbs). usually 1.050 or so on my gravity readings. Makes some damn fine beer.
