Extract to BIAB Recipe Conversion

[CKelly]

I've brewed a couple of iterations of a single hop pale ale using extract. However, I've recently switched over to BIAB but wanted to continue making these single hop pales. Can anyone help me convert my extract recipe into BIAB? Or at least give me some pointers on how I would go about doing it for the future? It's a fairly simple recipe so hopefully that means an easy conversion. Thanks!

Grain Bill:

8.5 lb Marris Otter LME
1.5 lb Munich 10
0.5 lb Carapils

BIAB or All-Grain, conversion from extract really shouldn't be different.

COnventional wisdom is 4/3 grain/lme, so your 8.5 LME becomes 11-1/3#

If the Maris Otter LME is 100% MO (quick search seems to indicate they are) then your grain bill is just the 11-13#MO, 1.5# Munich 10 and 0.5# Carapils

If the MO LME is made of %MO and %2-row, just do the math and add the 2-row to the grain bill.

Generally, 1 pound grain = .75 pounds LME

my LHBS's quick & lazy cheat sheet agrees, 8.5# LME = 11⅓ #

Great, that's much easier than I thought. Thanks everyone!
