I have moved to 3 vessel system, which suits my needs better.

Is the world a better place for BIAB?
Certainly.

 

[Wardhog]

Have only done the one 23 litre brew.

Was certainly an easier brew night.

Edit : But, that was probably the only BIAB I'll do. I built my mashtun on the weekend.

 

[phonos]

Does a partial mash BIAB count? I've got one I'm just about to bottle... 23 litres

I reckon if you now have a window that needs a new curtain, it counts!

Apart from 1 shared brewday where we BIAB'd a full batch, I only BIAB small batches for experimenting with new styles etc. I use my trad system for full size brews. But I am severely tempted to make the switch. If my damn pump leaks again next time I brew...........
