What if your brew bag isn't quite big enough width and length for the kettle? Is there anything I can do to make it work?
 
Welcome to HomeBrewTalk.

Better off getting a larger bag. Having wort outside the bag during the mash is not ideal, and if the grain is packed in the bag, that is even worse. Ideally, your pot should fit inside the bag, with 4 or more inches of extra height to allow the bag top to drape over the top of the pot.

Brew on :mug:
