Changing a recipe from BIAB to batch sparge in BS

[linusstick]

I decided to do a recipe I have in Beersmith traditionally instead of my usual BIAB. Even though i am doing the same batch size, should I just do the scale recipe function and change equipment that way or should I just change the equipment profile? I haven't done any batches other than my BIAB ones so I'm not sure if what I'm asking is going to do the same thing or not. Thanks

Maybe you should print out your BIAB recipe. The you will need to use an equipment profile for the new equipment. The problem comes that it will probably take a few brews, taking notes of the results, then making small changes to dial things in.

When you make the recipe using the new equipment you will probably have to adjust the ingredients to create the same OG, IBU, color etc.

Look at all the video tutorials to see how to make these adjustments.

If you have a profile for your more traditional brewing set up, then you can use the 'scale recipe' to change to the new equipment profile and have the software make the corrections between the two set ups.
