I just love the
"Here is an urn lets do a BIAB today" attitude.

Good times!!!

Love the jump in to the deep end approach. My first BIAB went great but the wort tasted wrong (not sweet like Kit and Kilo stuff) and I thought "the mash has failed, the mash has failed" so I put in a kilo of dex.

On tasting day it was glorious, but on fifth pint my mate and I were crawling around crying about why Princess Diana had to die and why don't they leave Britney Spears alone.

I like ya style...balls that would not fit in a fruit jar/stupid. Keep us posted.

So minor update......, I havnt had a chance to bottle this yet!
I assume it should still be okay it's been in the fermenting fridge at 19d

 

[mkstalen]

Errr.. how long's it been fermenting for? Nearly 6 weeks by the look of it.
As long as it's sealed up and nothing nasty has gotten in it should be ok, but it's probably well and truly ready to bottle now. Personally, I'd bottle it asap.

 

[doctr-dan]

Yeah pretty much 6 weeks , since the last post date. Is there any real negative to leaving it this long?

Should I skip the bottle and keg it instead.

 

[Pogierob]

Taste it.
I haven't head of a beer successfully being left on a yeast cake for 6 weeks. But I'm a rookie.
If it tastes ok bottle it, if it tastes like ass. Give up

 

[doctr-dan]

Update. Taste like arse what a shame
