I just received a recipe that will be my first BIAB recipe. The brewer that sent it to me scaled it down to 5gal for me for BIAB. In the recipe, he noted that I would mash in 10lbs of grain with 12.50qt/3.125gal @ 163.4F, step temp at 150F for 75min. Then he calls for a fly sparge with 5.75gal of 168F water.
Now since I'll be mashing in a cooler, can I just start off with 8.875gal of water to mash with? Are there any conversions I have to make?
Recipe is as follows
Malts
Hops
Flavorings
Yeast
