Hi All,
Need help with boil volumes and some procedures for my first AG-BIAB.
I am using beersmith but not having success with working out BIAB methods with this program. Am I missing something??
Anyway....I wish to start by doing a small batch low alcohol brew for visitors in the upcoming seasons.
I have a 19lt stock pot paired to an inefficient electric stove (will give a gentle to moderate boil with 14lt of water in it).
So I estimate that the boil off rate may be down, so need to know approx. how many litres of water needed to start with.
Have read the Bjorn J & Nick JD how to posts so hopefully I might have a bit of an idea what to do(maybe not). :unsure:
TIA
Cheers

- Wish to end up with 13.5lt in the fermenter.
- Mash for 60min. @ 64*c
- Boil 60 min. (maybe longer?-90??)
- Will be using half pkt. of yeast (US-05)
