You must have a much better pot than I do (or thicker blankets). When I do the one pot method I will lose about 15-20 degrees over and hour. I would not care about less than 5 degrees change.

I have been doing BIAB for about 1.5 yrs now and would recommend using an ice chest to do the mash in. Screw all the one pot nonsense, yes its less transferring, but its a pain having to make sure the temp is correct, heating it up, then checking it over and over. With an ice chest It will hold...

Well played, If it were me on a brew day with no backup plan, I am pretty sure I would just say "**** it, its gonna boil" and proceed onward. Although I still may at least shake the bag out pretty well.

Great stuff! I am planning to do the same process here soon and this has been a great help! Good Luck. Also on the yellow hop leaves, when I had it happen to mine it was just a nitrogen deficiency. http://grow.corymathews.com/2012/yellow-hop-leaves/

Thanks!

I have now done 2 batches, 1 ready to pop open this weekend and one just started fermenting on Sunday. The first batch seemed to ferment very quickly, activity only lasted about 3 days, but I still waited the 2 weeks. I tasted it a few days after bottling and it still tasted decent, not...

Howdy from Corpus Christi, Texas. I just wanted to so thanks HBT. There is so much good information here and it really helped when I started my first batch this week. I don't think it would have gone so well without you guys! Thanks everyone!
