Thought I would share my BIAB recipe:

Her's my recipe for my Jalapeno/Lime Cream Ale:

9.5 lbs Pale malt (2 row) US
2 lbs Vienna malt
1 lbs corn flaked
8 oz Cara-Pils
.5 oz Magnum hops
.5 oz Liberty hops, (you can substitute Willamette if you wish)
8 jalapeno halves, roasted ( you can use raw, seedless, use 6 halves then)
1 packet Safale american #US-05

I do a 75 minute steep at 152-153 degrees
Pull the bag, drain, I squeeze the the $h1t out of it, (personal choice)
Then a 60 minute boil
The magnum hops are 60 minutes
The Liberty hops last 15 minutes
The Jalapenos are added the last 5 minutes
For clarity I use a Whirifloc tablet with 15 minutes left

For those interested, 7.75 gallon initial boil. I end up with 5 gallons in primary ferment.

After about 14 days in Primary +/- a couple of days, I rack to secondary and add 2 more Jalapeno halves soaked in vodka for about 30 minutes.

And the finale: At the same time I added the Jalapenos in the secondary, I add 4 limes zest, also soaked in Vodka. Go 4-7 days, check your gravity, if you need longer, don't worry about it.... Go longer.

IT DOESN'T SUCK!! As a matter of fact, i'm drinking it now! 7.3% Abv. Any questions, feel free to ask.
