I'm thinking of trying all grain, and I don't want to get a whole bunch of stuff if I don't enjoy the process and results. I saw a video where a guy used his bottling bucket with a collapsible steamer as his mash tun (http://www.homebrewjunkie.com/2011/01/3-gallon-all-grain-homebrewing-video.html).
Would this work? I imagine he'd lose heat from his mash fairly easily. How could the mash temp be maintained?
I'm tempted to try this, since I already have all the equipment. I'm just a bit concerned that this might not give a good result due to possible issues with mash temp. Would I be better off trying a small-batch BIAB?
Thanks,
Dan
