A rule of thumb for you to be on the safe side: better choose one size larger. The Dutch Oven does not have to be filled completely when cooking. If you can not decide between the ft6 and ft9 Dutch Oven, for example, we recommend you get the larger one. Here the contact surface remains the same. The pot is just a little higher and will let you fill an extra 3-4 hungry stomachs if need be. You can also use the space of the larger pot to prepare dishes and freeze the food if necessary. Just make sure not to store the food overnight in the Dutch Oven.
