Yeah, using the calculator to predict the volume of the finished pot is a little iffy. This is one of the things that needs a good bit of improvement and I'm working on it.


Oh its pretty damn close.

I will add this. I pushed my pot trying to feed 120 once used very close to what you have listed. I served 162 - 8 oz bowls till the last grain of rice was gone. So your end result is pretty spot on.


I find this also varies from pot to pot. Depending on the manufacturer and age of the pots. Some 15 gallon pots hold half gallon more and some less. Really takes time to learn the pots you own and what you can get away with. But I agree the 18 lbs rice is a healthy pot of jamb. Takes some tending thats for sure.

I started to mention this.

If I am not mistaken, the imported 15 gallons pots actually only hold 14-1/2 I was told.
