Best place to buy a bag for Biab? Cheapest ? Best? Stands for brew in a bag for noobs!:) thanks in advance .:) cheers
 
There's a vendor on here that customizes them, not sure if they are the cheapest though. I bought one at my LHBS for ~$6 or so. I did it manually and it wasn't too bad, used some large binder clips to keep it from falling in my kettle.
 
You can get paint strainer bags. They are dirt cheap on amazon and ship with prime. Also, they sell them at your local hardware/paint shop.

thanks I may go to ace hardware and see
 
I got two paint strainer bags at my local paint store(Home Despot and Wally World didn't have any). I do a kind of a hybrid mash using the bags in a big rectangular cooler. That way I don't have to fixup a false bottom or braid. I got two because when I do BIAB it's for large grain bills(>10lbs) and the bags looked small. They do stretch pretty well though. Have used in two batches so far and have been pleased overall. Cost for the two was < $10 total.
 
Wilserbrewer, a vendor on here, makes custom bags. I don't have one (paint strainer guy here) but the users reviews are very positive.

Got his package deal on bags and a pulley system. Works great and super high quality. Plus he's a stand up guy here.

Ok...but the paint strainer bags won't fit my 10 gallon pot. $7-$8 is cheap and it's a quality bag.
thanks I like it I may have to have it . I want a bag big enough for my 30 quart turkey fryer I use to brew in. I like the draw strings also . Thanks.
