BIAB and first hoping

[brewhead05]

Will someone explain the first hop procedure as it applies to biab.

Was going to do a rye biab that called for first hops.

This is new to me.

Thanks

I assume you mean first wort hops. I just put the hops in there as soon as I pull out the mash bag, as I start heating it up to a boil.

weirdboy beat me to it, but yes, that.

weirdboy:

That's what I should have said. Thanks for the help.

I would assume it means your bittering hops, first addition of hops after your wort has started to boil and you start timing your boil. I could be wrong though. BIAB shouldn't create any different processes, it just allows you to mash and boil in the same container.
