I won't be doing any more BIABs because I now have an appropriate mash tun, but am impressed with the outcome of one I have done, and would recommend it.

Bunyip me mate!

Sorry I haven't thrown my two bob in here as yet. I've kept promising in my emails that I would.

Have no idea what I have BIAB'ed but I reckon keep the figures as they are - certainly wouldn't be less. And, add another 100 or whatever to mine as it's been a month if that helps.

If you adjust my figures, I promise I will update them.

Spot ya mate,
Pat (BIAB Rules. Think I'm a bit pissed! Whoops! You get that.)
 
Thursday afternoon I brewed a small batch of Barleywine BIAB style. Just had to add backa couple of litres of water to the boil because of volume limitations in my small BIAB kettle.

As a side issue, I also no-chilled this batch. First time at NC. I'll probably get around to fermenting it sometime this week.

Not going to try the beer for at least six months, probably closer to twelve. So it'll go a way to answering any questions I personally have about possible BIAB long term stability issues.

The more I try BIAB.... the more I like it.

Thirsty

Brew #8 (Belgian-style Golden Ale) happened today in the company of Velophile - and a few previous brews - and was a metric shed-load of fun!
 
Had a bash the other day at trying to work out how many BIAB's I've done. The first was done on 26th July, 2006 with another 18 since. Thought I'd done more but I forgot my 3 month brewing break whilst moving states :eek:

Brew #9 (Anti-Perspirant Kolsch) is now Not Chilling. Brewed under the supervision of Thirsty Boy - what an enjoyable day - I don't need a beer... :party:
 
Oops, just found this thread. Guess I should tack my name on the end :)

Oh, and one double batch. Not bad, but came up mid-strength, about 4% when should have been 5.2%
