I intended for this one to be PM, but the grain bill was so small 8.75# that it all fit into my tun so I decided to just do a BIAB. I agree that AG isn't nearly as complicated as it seems. It can be made to be as complicated or as simple as you like.

How much wort did you lose to absorption by the grain?

I know y'all are probably tired of these type of posts, but I am so damn excited I just got to tell. I am brewing my first all grain batch tomorrow. Trying BIAB for the first time. I am I am not sure what king of efficiency to expect, so I have a bag of DME around just in case I don't...

This has morphed into a BIAB from a Partial Mash. I had planned to mash as much as possible in my 16 quart pot and use extract for the rest of the of the gravity points. The beer I am brewing is fairly small 1.039 OG, BierMuncher's Centennial Blonde. The 8.5 pounds of grain should fit...

I found this sticky, answering my own question. re posting here in case someone else has this same question. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f11/how-big-your-mash-tun-needs-123585/

I am working out my first partial mash for this weekend. I have a 16 and 42 quart pots. I would like to mash all of my specialty grains and as much 2 row as possible in the 16 quart pot. Then sparge by dunking the bag in the remainder of my water @ 170 deg. I am planning on 50% efficiency...

That's what I figured. Hopefully this will be a short stop on the way to all grain.

Brewing this up this weekend. Planning on the extract version, as I haven't made it to all grain yet. Would this recipe benefit from a partial mash instead of using all extract? My guess it that the answer would be yes. I have never done a partial mash, but now seems like a good as any to...

I've had a Berliner Weiss a couple of times and really enjoyed them. They are unfortunately hard to find. I would like to brew something like this to keep around in the summer months. I think that something as sour as a B W might be a bit much for some of my guests, but I think I could get...

I have been enjoying Oarsman Ale over these crazy hot days. Is anyone familiar with a clone recipe or something similar?

Now I get it. I will keep my eye out and give it a shot. Thanks for the info.

I'd love to switch to ss when the funds allow. Where so you get your kegs, air locks, etc? I am not that familiar with using anything other than glass or bb.

I'll second that idea.

Welcome from a another short timer. I haven't heard of Richfield before; I had to look it up on the map. Looks like a nice place.

Add another to the list of those who ordered liquid yeast in the hottest part of the summer. I plan on making a starter way ahead of time. How long could I keep the starter in the fridge after it is ready? Would two weeks be too long?

I stumbled across the app in the Android Market while screwing around with my phone. This is a great site.

You are welcome to come by any time. My setup isn't very elaborate. I brew on my deck on a propane burner in a 10 gallon pot. I chill with an immersion chilled. I am going to try to brew this weekend. If I don't; it will probably in two more weeks. I will let you know.

Thanks. I love old cars. I just wish I had more money and time for them. I'm sure your grandfather never let you love that one down.

Welcome from way over here in Charlotte!

The only problem with the better bottle plan is that I am running out of places put my "beer stuff" as the wife refers to it.
