Thanks Greg! It's appreciated. A simple BIAB calc and simple HOWTO book go hand in hand :ban:
Hopefully we can make BIAB easier for newbies and experienced people alike :)
i find it kind of odd that there isn't more literature out there on homebrewing. Just a handful or two of real solid books.
How to Brew, Complete Joy of Homebrewing, Brewing Classic Styles, Homegrown Hops etc.
The newest version has been uploaded. Some changes:
Insulating Mash
New pictures
Mentioned adding clips to hold bag
Electric BIAB link
URL changes
Enjoy all! If you like it, toss some dough at my poor ass :rockin:
1. I don't want anyone burning their bag. The temp part of the BIAB calc is very accurate.
2. No mash out needed. The BIAB in my book was my third and I got 90%. Mash outs are for when grain is sitting n can get cold. We are boiling right after mash full volume, isn't that quick raise...
1. Forgetting hops. Epic fail lol
2. Putting down just boiled keggle on that expensive plastic composite board on my deck
3. Having hot wort splash my face/body by leaning over the keggle
Hehehe I've had some good ones
Lol awesome. Mine used to feel like a work day and sometimes after I'd feel stressed like it was one. Then I used the BIAB and no chill techniques as documented in my ebook. Now I'm done in <3 hours and it's nice. I don't like to rush, I like to feel relaxed when I'm doing hobbies. Hobbies...
I ripped brand new bags I had from the lhbs. Better off to grab Jeff's bag right off the bat or sew up something yourself if you've got the skills. Cheap bags suck
Thanks Austinb. I've brewed batch sparge, BIAB and helped fly sparge on a home brew and 40 barrel microbrewery scale. For beginners BIAB is probably the best option as it is the easiest. The title sounded catchy and the URL wasn't taken so I snatched it up.
I like to have a brew buddy on...
Definitely try dry hopping. When I first started brewing I was seeking the same thing and the dry hop gives it that extra ooomph of flavor. You should up the bittering hops as well like stated try .5 oz of warrior.
Nice rewording miller. Imma copy paste what you wrote right in there. As for version numbers I mentioned on the blog section of the site this will be a work in progress type of deal. I feel that most of these changes are for clarification and not major. That being said I think I'll do...
