    BIAB: adding grains before heating water?

    I am just getting into BIAB/AG. One of the charts I saw a few days ago showed what different temps do. It seems to me that this would be similar to step mashing. May be wrong but sure someone will say. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f13/maybe-will-help-someone-mash-chart-102365/ Kind of small...

    1st BIAB attempt coming up

    My order came in yesterday. Everything as it should be. I did not realize the thermo-hydrometer was going to be so long. It is taller than my 6 gal ss kettle. Will need to find something to measure gravity. Floating thermometer looks cool. Will be brewing later today or tomorrow.

    Doctor say's I no more beer. Drink vodka instead.

    Along with exercise and the lose it app; try switching up the times you eat certain foods. Try to eat majority of carbs earlier in the day. And eat a high protein snack 30 minutes before bed. I had my wife do that and she is down 20+ pounds in 2.5 months. She takes in around 1800 calories...

    Going to brew 2 separate 2.5 gal batches this weekend. I am using Safale US-05 Ale Yeast for 1 and Danstar Nottingham Ale Yeast for the other. Just getting into brewing. Will there be a noticeable difference? Using my LBKs for primaries.

    Also I ordered my grains milled. Should I crush them in a bag with a rolling pin?
