    Keg cleaning frequency - how often for a full breakdown?

    Now you have me worried. I rinse thoroughly, fill with a gallon of hot water and PBW, shake vigorously, run 1/2 through the tap, rinse and repeat with hot Starsan. What am I missing?

    Whats your favorite IPA yeast?

    Started out making Stone IPA clones with 1968 - made great beer but I wanted a drier finish. Ran with 1272 for many batches - highly recommended. Last few have been with San Diego Super - cleaner, drier.

    Another Question about BIAB

    The other important piece that is not being discussed here is water volume. Find a good BIAB calculator, measure accurately and save your data. Efficiency cannot be accurately calculated without accurate volume measurement, especially strike water needed, and volume of ambient wort.

    How to calculate ration of dry hops ?

    Don't worry too much about exact hop amounts for dry hopping. Usually, 1-2 oz (30-60g) for 3-5 days after fermentation is complete will work.

    Designing my first BIAB brew -> baffled

    No The sugars are in your wort and have been converted from starches in your grain during the mash.

    BIAB low efficiency - Grain Milling

    Other things to consider: Do a full volume mash and make sure the grain is not constricted. Mash 90 minutes Stir at least every 20-30 minutes Make sure your pH is not too high
