Ruddy,
No a more accurate yield is 2.5 to 3.5 the yield to lift 25L since leaving the DarkSide of the force. I have been using Lowens until recently, I got some DADY yeast and its good for 15% ABV and so I expect a little better yield hence the jump. Yes the 5L was in the past using Alcotech that stuff is a beast but leaves a nasty taste to be sure.
OK so what I am taking home from this is: Yes you can do a run with less than full boiler but, do some calculations to be sure that you maintain a minimum amount in the still by runs end.
