I am looking to trying to move from extract to BIAB. I am looking at getting a larger brew kettle with a temperature probe and spigot built in. My first question is why dont people just open the spigot into bucket or something during lautering. It would seem you would be able to get alot of the water out via that method vs pulling the bag out with a hoist. You could also push the bag down to the bottom of the kettle to squeeze a bit more out if you so desired. Any downsides to doing this so long as the bag doesn't get pushed against the temperature probe?
Secondly, I have a phil mill I inherited from a family member who used to brew. I keep reading that the best way to get efficiency up is to grind very finely. Is it possible to get too fine with a phil mill?
