So now that I've settled into my own house and have room (and time) to brew again, I'm going to attempt a 2nd BIAB recipe this weekend. Here are the specs:
BIAB Wheat Ale
3lb 2 row
2 lb wheat malt
0.5 oz crushed coriander @ 10 min
0.5 oz US Hallertau @ 60 min
1/2 pack of S-04 yeast
Batch size: 2.5 gal
Boil size: 3 gal
Boil time: 60 min
Estimated OG: 1.057
Estimated FG: 1.014
Estimated ABV: 5.5%
Strike water: 2.5 gal
Strike temp: 162F
The plan is to do BIAB in an enamel canning pot (4 gal) on my stovetop but I'm not sure of the mash thickness. I've read 1.3qt/lb is a good ratio, but the priceless BIAB calc shows 2qt/lb for this size recipe with 1 gal of sparge volume.
I'm mostly looking for feedback on mash thickness and sparge volume and I can figure strike temp from there.
Anything else look out of place? I really appreciate any feedback/tips.
