I did a 10 gallon all grain BIAB last week with a buddy!!! American Stout.
This was my first 10 gal attempt. It worked out well. We used two large bags in a 15 gallon keggle. It was a pain to stir two bags, but it worked.
Efficiency 70% - a little low, but it was my first two-bagger and we lost some wort when we pulled both bags. The colander didn't hold them both and I hadn't thought of that detail beforehand.
I also didn't calculate the water properly. We ended up with 9 gallons OG 1051 Stout instead of something more like 10 gallons of OG 1045 Stout.
Next time I'll think about it more and keep better notes.
I tasted it going into the keg yesterday and it was awesome. Should be great when carbed up.
