Thanks for the tip priceless, I couldn't really stir with the 2nd pot I used for that step (much wider than the one I was brewing in, but I am looking at some other options for the next round.

jcglezen - I was in the process of rebuilding my entire brewery before I got the wild hair to try BIAB, 3 15 gal keggles, 1 8 gal pony keggle, 10 gal cooler, 5 gal cooler, 2 false bottoms, 2 copper chillers, heating element, etc, etc, (was planning for a 2 pump electric / propane HERMS system)...

I 2nd the priceless calc, and forgoing the secondary, your OG and efficiency "might" run a little low depending on your crush but DWHAH, you'll figure it out. I wasn't concerned with a mashout on my first trial BIAB but fearing my 7.5 gallon pot wouldn't hold everything I opted to hold a gallon...

Imbolc sitting at approx. 1.016 after 5 days in primary at 50F, bumping to 66F for D-rest. Still slightly sweetish with a nice hoppiness.

Thanks chunk, not really what I was planning but when life gives you 1/2 lb of crystal mixed into your 2 row...make beer!

Clever BlueHouse, I like it.

My thought process exactly, if I'm going to be the only one drinking it for the most part, it has to be a winner for me.

Any opinions of one over the other, not counting price?

iijakii - Yeah I'm definitely convinced that a good bag is next on the list, the trial run convinced me. I used priceless and brewers friend both to get some comparisons and they were fairly close, priceless being a tad closer. Bru'nwater & brewers friend both projected my expected PH and...

So I decided to try a 3.5 gallon BIAB as an experiment into the process, being that I'm the only one at home that drinks beer (SHMBO is a wine drinker), I decided smaller batches were in order and BIAB seemed to be a viable option. Without investing in more equipment until I tried it out, I...

Alright everyone, I'm not ignoring anyone, just got some work stuff to take care of.

Helles...as soon as I... A. Finish side by side kegger/ferm B. Finish single tier stand C. Finish keggles D1. Build control panel for system (eherms) D2. Order electronics, parts, etc. for above E. Oh screw it, I will likely finish A and do small batch BIAB for now!

Got a link by chance?

Hi All, I am wanting to buy 2-4 corny kegs, size doesn't really matter...1.75 gal, 2.5 gal, 5 gal, whatever, pin or ball lock. I'm in Houston Tx, willing to pay reasonable shipping, I also get to San Antonio and DFW area multiple times a year as well as OKC area several times a year...

Freaking Niceeeee, looks awesome Spittybug!

Interesting, I was thinking of something along those lines awhile back but never went anywhere with it, should work well for a HERMS system. Subscribed.

Anybody ever read the dirty diaper in the fermenter thread over at the old greenboard, that **** was rolling on the floor hilarious.

I would suggest outside, I used to keep my reg and tank inside but I noticed corrosion developing around the reg from Houston condensation as well.

Thanks Deece, I was thinking it might work that way but wasn't certain.
