I'm considering giving BIAB a go. I just got back into homebrewing after a 9 year break and I'm really wanting to avoid the 8+ hour brew days that I used to do. I'm considering doing a 3 to 3.5 gal batch on my kitchen stove using the BIAB method. I used ProMash years ago and would like to stay with it. Are there any tips anyone can give me for editing the calculations in ProMash so I hit my mash temps, etc? I understand that when you pull the grain bag out of the kettle the grains get squeezed so that the grains will absorb less wort. So instead of absorbing .5qt per lb its more like .3qt. Are there any other modifications I need to make? I think my previous boil off rate was 8%, but that was on a propane burner. I'm not sure I'll have that vigorous of a boil in the kitchen.
TIA!
