I'm working on a 12 gallon brew pot with a 5500watt ripple element for 5 gallon biab batches. If I have NO intention of recirculating or heating the mash while mashing would it be okay to drop the biab in without any false bottom to keep weight off the element? I'm wondering if the bag would put stress or bend the element?
I assume no since we have no vacuum pressure from the pump but wanted to check with y'all before I make an expensive mistake.
