First BIAB

[DogboyBrew]

Just turned the flame on to start heating up my water. This is my first step into the wonderful world of all grain so I figured I'd share. I'm brewing the NB Jake's CDA recipe. No issues so far, I will keep you updated(for all of those interested) on how it goes. To infinity and beyond.

Good Luck. BIAB is a great way to do all grain without a huge expense.

I wrapped my kettle in a towel and that big jacket. Didn't lose a single degree over 60 minutes.

A burner will absolutely be the next investment..this electric stove does not cut it.

You could also consider supplementing your electric stove with a heat stick?

I'll have to look into that. My old man used to home-brew, dug around in his old stuff and ended up finding an old burner. Sundays are the best days.

Ok your all set with a burner...keep the heTstick idea for when there is a foot of snow and 30 mph winds outside.

You're right about that one! I've moved a few times over the past year, and apartment complexes aren't too keen on people using propane burners:beard:

Where at? I just moved down here in July. My apt complex is cool with propane burners (... well I can hide it without them seeing it )

Lafayette. I think I can get away with it, I'm gonna give it a try on my next one. There's no way I'm waiting on that electric stove anymore.
