THANKS! What wattage bucket heater are you using? A little confused on their MAXIMUM LOAD: 880W at 110V or 1960W at 240V

I've been wanting that exact HLT setup. What controller is that? I don't recognize it.

right. Mine is basically 24"x24", so 5 gallons is just too shallow.

depends on the kettle dimensions. I BIAB in a 25 gallon, and really can't do anything less then 10 gallons in it.

1056? S-05? As long as you pitched the correct cell count, I don't see why you'd necessarily need to add a second strain. Either of those could theoretically get the proper attenuation for that beer-- depending on factors like mash temp and pitch rate

I would, yes, just to be safe. I've had mixed results not adding more, depending on how long you bulk condition before bottling.

Just had a 2+ year bottle. Still delicious!

$24 .99 at our Safeway. I thought it was a really solid mix. Everyone I had was good to really good. I was impressed. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

The purpose of the conical is that you can dump the yeast from the bottom making secondary unnecessary Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Whoever this is , is my hero. I do pretty much the biggest BIAB batches I've seen at 25 gals. This will be epic (and I hate that phrase) Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

exactly. 10 gallons of high gravty- not without additional water/sparge. 10 gallons of something sessionable, yea, I've done it.

Porter, Stout, Barleywine... my favorite oaked styles. It certainly wont take 3 ft of stave to do a 5 gallon batch, thats for sure

Ive had to dump a couple. 2 high fermentation temps with Notty, and were just awful, and 1 super high fermentation when my temp controller went haywire and left the heater on and jumped the beer temp to over 100. So actually I guess all 3 were high temps haha
