Omg, dude you re helping me out a lot rn because, I’m just starting out and want to move to all grain. But it’s hard to find really detailed information in simple language! I really appreciate you!

Excellent tutorial! Its crazy how easy BIAB can be and how amazing the results are, a great beginner way to brew. And shoutout received! 🍺💰

Thank you! Happy brewing! 👍

Great presentation, just that simple. Been home brewing for 35 years did a lot of different recipies. Simpler is best . I may go crazy and add a bit of crystal malt. Got my brew bag and winch 2 years ago I do sparge my grains . Grow my own hops Hallartual and cascade mixed.

Great stuff; I've been homebrewing for over 18 years and tried almost every method there is, biab is definitely the way to go for those new to all grain. Also, SMaSH beers are fantastic tool for familiarizing yourself with new base malts, hop varieties, and yeast strains... maybe changing just one thing at a time though so you get to spot to subtleties in the change. Even after all this time I make several SMaSH beers a year, my last being Golden Promise/El Dorado hops/Lutra Kveik yeast and it made a delicious beer.

I have been doing BIAB for a couple of years now, but always learning. Thanks for sharing the tip on adding the hop spider after the hot break.

You are so welcome! I had been wondering why I was having to use a fine brush so frequently on my spider, then saw that post on Reddit and was like, welp, that makes perfect sense.

Great video man. I've been transitioning into biab after just doing partial mashes this is a great explanation of what this process is and why one might want to start biab.

That’s pretty cool, I’ve been tempted by BIAB after seeing BruSho doing it and now yourself. It looks really easy and low maintenance/cleaning!

I wish I would have started out with BIAB. Instead I went 3 vessel and sank a ton of money. . . .Now I am on an Anvil Foundry and couldn't be happier.

im not one who likes a lot of vids.. but you sir got at sub and a like! thank you! i can finally put my extract brewing to rest!

I just took up brewing beers/ciders/meads. While I like the expensive porters/stouts I have a lot of friends and family that enjoy Bud/Blue Moon taste. I think I'll crank out a few cases for them. Thanks.

To simplify this even further, I use a 30 QT stock pot (search 2616 on Amazon) that's kind of squat and it fits my gas range very well even with a microwave on top. It's great for doing 3 gallon batches - and because the batches are smaller, I use a plastic tub the pot fits into filled with ice instead of a wort chiller. One less thing to buy. I think a beginner could get started for around $200. I think 2.5-3 gallon batches are the way to go for a noob - there are tools online to help scale down from a 5 gallon recipe.

@DointheMost Sorry to necro an older video (~2 years), but could you drop a link to the outdoor cooking stand you are using here? It looks perfect for my keggle!

I may have mentioned before, but Maris Otter and Pacific Jade make an extraordinary SMaSH. Also fun fact, Pilsner Urquell (like the greatest Czech pilsner for those who don't know) is *technically* a SMaSH because it's just Pilsner and Saaz (but the mash gets triple decocted)

This was good. My first ever brew is fermenting right now. That brew kettle you have, that's a keg that you have converted right? I'm going to see if you have a video on how you did that. :-D

is it possible to add the sugar directly in each bottle, bypassing the carboy phase? if possible, how much do you suggest? thanks for the amazing video!

What material is your bag made of in your video? Cotton? Nylon? Other? Great video - thanks!

How big of an opening do you have on that? Someone on another video said that the opening needed to be over 12 inches for BIAB to fit. That doesn't quite make sense to me, but I've never done it. I just happen to have a keg out back that I could make into one of these.

How much boiling water did you use for the sugar!! Cracking video, keep rockin

At 5.5 abv it’s still considered as a strong beer. So definitely bigger and bolder than commercial beers

I did BIAB twice, but skimped on the wort chiller. Was delicious but very unpredictable how much bitterness extracts while cooling over night.

I've got 5 gallons of Belgian whit beer bottled and conditioning. With coriander and ok orange zest from our tree.

With a single grain ,what is head retention like, or are you better to use another grain as well for head retention

Question, it looked like you used ALOT of sanitizer in the bottling carbouy and the bottles themselves…is it possible to use too much? I feel like my last brew I used too much and I could taste it in the final beer.

Hey you brew beer once in a while. I have a question..... Bet you never heard that before. 🤣 Anyway recently my youngest grand daughter gave me a 3lb 4oz can of Muntons Amber lme. I found out that a single can can make 2 and a half gallons of beer. Now my question is..... I am going to change the flavor profile a little by adding a half gallon of apple juice in with the water. Plus 8 single serve packets of oatmeal n brown sugar. The question I have is do I add the mesh bag of oatmeal at the start or should I wait until fermentation begins. And how long should I leave the bag in. Please dont laugh this is only an experiment as I have only brewed wines in the past.

I just started doing BIAB using a large pot on the stove. A lot simpler set up, no wort chiller so I use a bag of ice, as my boil volume is only 14L. Ice chills and add most of the extra required water to 23L. While this is a good vid, it requires or assumes a lot of extra gear, like a keg and wort chiller. Also a thumbs down for me is all this work and no temperature control on the fermenting stage? That is are really important part of the process IMO. Fine if your temp is stable in a basement etc, but if it's too high or low or variable, then the beer may not ferment fully.

I started with a BIAB and got decent results but my advice is to use only for simple and not strong beers since the extraction capacity of the BIAB is inferior to the three vessel method

You can, with smaller batches. On the stove, bringing 6 gallons of liquid to a boil is pretty difficult. But, if you're doing a 3-gallon batch, you can probably get 3.5 gallons boiling in a big stock pot.

Well, your boil volume would be about 3.5 gallons, generally. Your mash volume would be higher than that. This is actually dependent on a lot of factors, like your amount of grain and how much liquid it absorbs, how vigorous your boil is and how much evaporation that creates, etc. It's specific to your recipe and setup.
