So iv done my first AG brew (BIAB) and i pitched some Safale S-33 today at around 11am
I airated pouring from the cube to the fermenter then using my mash paddle i stirred it furiously for around a minute then pitched directly ontop of the foam then gave it a shake 30 mins later, straight into the ferm fridge dropped it from 24 to 19c
i have a nice big Krauzen and a lot of activity going on so early....
Wondering if it has to do with the sugars being fresher than when you make a kit or extract?
Next brew i am going to use some wYeast and get onto the path of better beers but with a lag time of less than 8 hours i'm happy with how this yeast has kicked in.
BIAB has sold me 10 times i will never do another kit or extract again....... whats the point when BIAB is so easy
