Hey Everyone,
I'm going to be starting all grain 1-gallon brewing in the next week or two, I'm waiting on a current batch (of extract) to finish. I wanted to know your thoughts on cooler size.
I have come to the realization that keeping my mash at 160 degrees for 1 hour, on the stove top, may be a little difficult and I've seen that a lot of all-grain brewers use coolers to steep. If I am doing 1 gallon batches, I figure that I'll need 1.5 gallons of water. I plan on doing BIAB, to start, do you think a 2 gallon cooler would be sufficient in size?
Thanks!
