    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Westvleteren 12 Clone - Multiple Award Winner

    I've had problems sometimes getting Brewer's Gold Hops. What's a substitute that people have used for bettering, and has come out great?

    Brewie

    @Nate R Thanks for your response! I'm not new to brewing but am new to Brewie and/or BIAB. When you say "any" brew bag, do you remember what size is needed? And by sealing, just so that the grain doesn't spill out right?

    Brewie

    I just obtained a used BREWIE. Looking at the instructions & video it says you must use a BREWIE mash bag. Those I cannot find! Anyone who still brews with a BREWIE, what is the preferred alternative?
