Trying to do my first BIAB and first BeerSmith as well. I have a 10 gallon pot. I have put in this information into BeerSmith but when I look at the Mash tab it says "Mash Volume Needed 9.65g". My recipe calls for a little over 10lb of grain. I don't see how I can fit both into a pot. Won't 10lb of grain displace more than .4 gal of water?
I have tried selecting BIAB, Medium, Light, and Full body under the Mash Profile but that doesn't seem to change the requirements for 9.65g of mash water.
What am I missing here? How can I fit 10lb of grain into my 10 gallon pot and get efficient BIAB extraction?
