As the guys above said, it is most important to have the right material. I'll see if I can get a barcode for the Swiss Voille from Spotlight.
There are only four ways you can bugger a BIAB that I have seen so far (and the last two of these also directly apply to traditional brewing)...
1. Wrong Material - Cottons, muslins etc of indistinct or unknown poracities always seem to cause problems. The BIAB method produces top results so it is woth following the exact, 'recipe.'
2. Material Does Not 'Line' the Kettle. (I haven't worked out a degree of error here yet but I'm not confident in anything that will not completely line the kettle.)
3. Inaccurate Thermometer: Most are inaccurate and
need to be clainrated at MASH temperatures not freezing and boiling points.
4. Inaccurate Temperature Readings: To get an accurate temperature reading, the mash must be agitated in one way or another prior to taking a reading. In Biab, you just stir things up a little before taking a reading. In some traditional systems you are able to do the same. In otheres you cannot.
These are VERY IMPORTANT things to keep an eye on.
Congrats on your first AG 65.
