How Big Of A Pot Do I Need To Cook 6 Pounds of White Beans?

I'm thinking the biggest Magnalite Roaster should work.


I'll post some pics while I'm cooking them tomorrow.

I use a 5 gal. or 20 qt. pot for 5 pounds. I like to have room to stir and 6 should be fine. Thats enough for over 30 people.....

Ended up filling a 25 quart pot about halfway. I also brined them with 3 quarts of water to a gallon of water and they were great.
