I've brewed about fifteen batches of partial mash on the stove, but tonight I'm stepping up to my first all grain with the BIAB method.
I built my immersion chiller the last week, (50' 1/2" ID) and it's been leak tested at full pressure.
Grains are out with my gear, yeast starter looks great, and I've got a full tank of propane and have fully adjusted my new burner. I've installed a pulley and rope for lifting my grain basket, and it should easily take 50+ lbs.
Anything else I should consider? This batch is a hoppy American amber ale.
I have a hot water tap in my garage along with cold, and reason I shouldn't fill my mash pot from the hot water line (tankless water heater, 125f) to save on heating via the burner from cold?
