10 Jars

This might be a silly question, but its something I am wondering and hoping someone can give me some feedback. I am currently working with 10 jars of EQ from Ralphsters (thanks buddy, your service was impeccable). 5 were knocked up about a week ago and are looking really good. I am going to knock up the other 5 tonight. I am using the BRF method in 1/2 pint jars. Perlite is my humidifier and I will be using a 10 gallon rubbermaid with a 20 gallon rather air pump for FAE. What I was wondering is what to expect in terms of a yield. Best case to worst case would be awesome. Again, I apologize for the scope of this question, but I am a noob in terms of fungus cultivation and am more than curious. Thanks folks!

Lot's of variables...
It took me two failures to get it right. And the first success yielded slightly less than a 1/2oz dried...enough for a good night with friends but not worth the money and almost two months it took me to achieve success (after months of failure).
Anticipate a long a wait and consider it a learning experience. If you want to grow mushrooms and actually get some yield for your time and money invested, think about going with bulk methods like a monotub.

I have been trying to find a good monotub tek, but am having some trouble. I also don't have a PC (yet). Stealth is also an important variable in this grow as well. Does anyone know of a good monotub tek?

With a monotub does the stuff from the jar go down and then the coir on top of that? Also, how do you keep humidity up?

you can either mix or layer the colonized grain into the substrate when you get to that stage.

Can you bulk grow with BRF? I have heard that you can, but I just want to make sure because bulk growing yields more.

Yes, you can crumble and spawn BRF cakes to bulk if you want.

You never really know how many or what the wet weight will be.
