THANKS! What wattage bucket heater are you using? A little confused on their MAXIMUM LOAD: 880W at 110V or 1960W at 240V

I've been wanting that exact HLT setup. What controller is that? I don't recognize it.

right. Mine is basically 24"x24", so 5 gallons is just too shallow.

depends on the kettle dimensions. I BIAB in a 25 gallon, and really can't do anything less then 10 gallons in it.

1056? S-05? As long as you pitched the correct cell count, I don't see why you'd necessarily need to add a second strain. Either of those could theoretically get the proper attenuation for that beer-- depending on factors like mash temp and pitch rate

I would, yes, just to be safe. I've had mixed results not adding more, depending on how long you bulk condition before bottling.

Just had a 2+ year bottle. Still delicious!

$24 .99 at our Safeway. I thought it was a really solid mix. Everyone I had was good to really good. I was impressed. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

The purpose of the conical is that you can dump the yeast from the bottom making secondary unnecessary Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Whoever this is , is my hero. I do pretty much the biggest BIAB batches I've seen at 25 gals. This will be epic (and I hate that phrase) Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

exactly. 10 gallons of high gravty- not without additional water/sparge. 10 gallons of something sessionable, yea, I've done it.

Bottled 5 gals that's been sitting since October. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Porter, Stout, Barleywine... my favorite oaked styles. It certainly wont take 3 ft of stave to do a 5 gallon batch, thats for sure

Ive had to dump a couple. 2 high fermentation temps with Notty, and were just awful, and 1 super high fermentation when my temp controller went haywire and left the heater on and jumped the beer temp to over 100. So actually I guess all 3 were high temps haha

kinda the ultimate for me would be to add the http://www.brew-boss.com/ system to the BIAC

I had totally thought of doing the same thing. Then my lazy side kinda kicked in and thought how easy it would be just to order the package. But either way absolutely works, your way might save you some money and get a little nicer control side of things, but obviously has a lot more leg work...

BIAC no question for me, as long as you don't mind the vessel being tied up during fermentation. Its a beautiful, JACKETED, conical. Temp control for mash and fermentation. Sanitation done. Just noticed yesterday they switched to new heating elements that visually are much better than the ones...

Heck yea!

Literally just got mine in the mail this morning and haven't touched it yet. Its only two prong, so no ground, thus the admonition I'm assuming for no metal containers. Gotta be on a GFCI breaker, or more likely, straight into a GFCI plug. Thought about suspending mine somehow in the middle of...
