Sorry guys!

This may appeal to some BIAB doing dual 19litre mashs! Just something cheap I saw http://aldi.com.au/au/html/offers/2827_23729.htm

Taking some advice, NickJD. By eliminating non food grade plastic at a relatively cheap cost I thought. I will buy another 19litre stainless steel pot, and drill holes in the bottom to make it more food safe. Use it the same as the bucket idea to sparge the grain. But wont kill me in the long...

Aussie Lager Grain bill 4.2 kilos Traditional Ale 300 gram Dextrose 20gram PoR at 90mins. Saflager S23. NC method. Pitched today. Curious to see how the recipe plays out. Cheers Rae

I hear you. I think Ill run with what I have currently until I can sort out some better gear. Trying to do things on a budget weighing up a health sacrifice! :P

Finished my second BIAB wort and pitched today. Went with Ross's Nelsons Sauvions Summer Ale, Grain bill, 4.5kg Joe White Traditional Ale 500g Joe White Wheat, Hops as per recipe, but added an extra 5g at flameout - 35g 0 mins. NC method, chilled overnight. Syphoned into fermenter and pitched...

And if it was already a pre existing condition.... ;) haha

So final gravity 1.055, from 6 kg of traditional ale grain. 90 mins at 66'c. 90 min boil, irish moss in the last 13 mins. 180 gram of amarillo, left for 15 mins at flamout. Gone for a no chill, so straight into a sanitised fermenter. Will pitch tomorrow. My methods of aerating the wort are...

Very sticky he states after attempting 6 kilos of grain in a 10 litre bucket, is when the bigger plastic bucket idea came about. The mopping was great fun lol.

Are you able to prove/disprove that the 10 litre buckets people buy to dunk sparge in are not? Minimal contact mind you. I have known people to ferment in these bins. Any thoughts or valid information otherwise which I cannot find would be useful! Cheers Rae

No idea who yasmani is. Dare I ask why I am a troll? The ideas I provide are as an amateur brewer, as in the amateur thread. I don't force people to view my idea, they can simply take it or leave it. But elaboration would be appreciated. The drilled holes arent in contact with the timber as it...

Holes drilled in the bottle ** sorry

Haha, well 10litre plastic bucket, 60 litre plastic bin! Less mess too!!

Ok. My first biab, but, 8 dollars bunnings bin. 19 litre big w stock pot. Super easy to sparge. Cheers. Rae

Cheers for the advice. Im prepared for a bit of trial and error. I was gonna post this on the 20 litre biab guide. Stuff the small bucket. 8 dollar bunnings bin. Holes in the bottom. Easy to sparge a few litres over the grain. What do you think? Cheers. Rae

Yeah basically going off the Recipe D.B, 60 min boil, bung in the amarillo in the last 10 minutes. Going to go NC 10 min IPA I suppose. Curious to see the efficiency of BIAB with such a large quantity of grain , 6.25kg. Shall find out. About to start the boil! Thanks for the welcome!!

So firstly a thank you to the big men who accepted and registered me to aussiehomebrewer. Secondly a quick G'day. Been reading for ages but never registered. Been doing kits with hops for about 6-12 months. But today I have moved up in the ranks. Made a quick trip to grainandgrape. About $50...
