I`ve been bag brewing for about a year now and got my method honed out pretty well. I`m mostly using irish moss in my boils and always see a lot of big protein clumps towards the end of the boil like someone threw a raw egg into the mix, but still my beers are most always cloudy. I am sparging so that after mashing I hang a stainless bucket with holes drilled into the bottom over my kettle, place my bag in the bucket and pour hot water through the bag until I hit my boil volume, I have hit my target preboil OG on the nose every time and getting about 70% efficiency so the method itself is working fairly well, but I got thinking should I drain some of the wort from my boiling kettle onto a measuring cup and pour it onto the grains until my preboiled wort gets clearer? Does it help when BIAB:ing?
IIRC I have only managed to produce crystal clear beer ONCE and even that produced massive chill haze.
