Won't be long before you have a proper mash tun/lauter tun and doing full scale AG.

Thanks! I already have a MLT and 2 1/2 barrel kegs that I'll be converting to keggles!

BIAB is a form of full scale AG.

I started doing 3-vessel for my all grain brewing, but I've moved to BIAB for most beers (I still use 3-vessel occasionally for more complicated mash schedules).

For the majority of single-infusion 5-gallon batches, there's no real difference between BIAB and 3-vessel (single batch sparging both), aside from 3-vessel taking longer and leaving more stuff to clean up.

I have done 6 batches using this procedure: http://www.beersmith.com/blog/2009/04/14/brew-in-a-bag-biab-all-grain-beer-brewing/
I consider this full scale AG brewing...I don't know if I will build a real mash tun, or not.

Glad to see people loving BIAB. I've been doing mini-mash recipes for over a year and I'm about to move to all grain. It seems like a similar principal just with larger quantities. Also it seems like the most affordable entry into AG brewing, just a bigger pot and a big bag.
