I've  been collecting info from various club members as to the grain pound 
capacity  of their mash tuns, and the efficiency of the brew systems.  


I can process about 12-13 lbs (i can get more in there but it is hard to  
stir) of grain in my mash tun for a 5.5 gallon batch of wort.  I'm not sure  of 
the exact efficiency rate but you have seen the system, I'm guessing it  at 5% 
either side of 75%.   I have pulled off quite a few 1.080 and  greater OG 
brews with it.  Hopefully it will be upgraded to a new brew  kettle soon that will 
give me a larger volume to boil.  I should have an  extra carboy and air lock 
and I will have the extra 8 gallon oak wooden cask if  we need more storage 
capacity.
 
Looks like a it will be great day to be a brewer!
