Large momentum transfer in combination with Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) is a key technique for future atomic gravitational wave detectors as well as for miniaturized inertial quantum sensors. Our twin lattice allows us to efficiently manipulate our delta-kick collimated BECs to form symmetric scalable beam splitters consisting of a combination of Double Bragg diffraction and Bloch oscillations. We succeed to interfere BECs moving at a differential velocity of up to 2.2 m/s in an interferometer involving a total of 1632 transferred photon momenta. We investigate the scalability of the momentum transfer both theoretically and experimentally. Studying the spatial interference reveals that our method is limited technically rather than fundamentally.
