I am on a super budget equipment wise so i have been doing BIAB in a single pot for the whole process in my 7.5gal pot. I have a keg shell, and was thinking of making a basic keggle, just a whole in the top, for now not even ball valve at the bottom just to prevent boilovers and for larger batches. Is there somewhere I could put that 7.5gal pot to use?
How I was thinking of doing this was brew a batch and rack it to the fermenters below it, and then brew another batch and use the keggle as an actual fermenter. I know I wont get an airtight seal, but using rubber gasket and some redneck engineering I bet i could get it close.
My questions are, is there any reason why this wouldent work? maybe BIAB not working on a batch that size (id like to make 15gal batches out of it)
