Your concerns are real, depends on the grain, and target volumes
Corn I would not go over 5 kg in 25 litres, but in this instance i did 2.63 corn, 4,5 kg rye and 0.365 Malted barley. The basket was a blessing and a curse. It held the grains tightly and water around them was at a lower level, I only have a small drain and by not using the basket I could scorch, hence 25 litres at a time. Two batches for a 66 litres volume, ended up taking 5 kg out to be safe in one fermenter. I will stick with it, its a manageable volume to move once finished, manually moved as moving that much grain will not happen any other way
