I've done partial mash recipes before but they have always been from kits for BIAB. How do I go about converting the all grain below to a partial mash recipie. My large brew kettle is only 5 gallon so I would assume I would have to do a boil of like 3.5 gallon max

Found this on the Forum it may be a better option as the boil volume will be perfect
