Cooler (5 Gal) H700
Internal Dimensions are 16H x 10D. External dimensions are 18.75'' x 12.5''D with lid on. We have been asked many times how many pounds of grains can fit into the 5 gallon cooler. There are many different theories on water to grain ratio, but pretty commonly accepted is anywhere from .9 to 1.1 quarts of water per 1 pound of grain. With that in mind here is what we found. At 1.1 quarts of water per 1 pound of grain we were able to fit 14.5 lbs of grain with the ag403 false bottom in place. That correlates to using a 1 to 1 ratio you could fit in 16 lbs and at a .9 to 1 ratio you can fit in over 17lbs of grain.
