      I had a post a couple years back, and people liked the pictorial. I have updated my website and the previous link was no longer functioning.
      So I am posting my BIAB pictorial, and the updated link.
      It is a Kolsch from scratch. Enjoy:
      
      I also edited the older post to have the new link.
      Sorry if anyone could not find it...

      Yes,
      The pool filter has a diversion valve to use to empty the pool a bit after it rains, or to lower the water level for servicing. That has a standard hose valve and bib on it.
      So while pool filter is running, you can use that hose bib just like a garden hose, only drawing water from the pool.
      Then the water routed through the copper cooling coil is rerouted back into the pool instead of down the drain or into the street. ;)

      I did a fairly successful BIAB brew day. My first BIAB and my first all grain.
      The photo journal is here, along with my other brewing adventures.
      
      Enjoy!

      Holey buckets, JerryCraft, your pictorial is the best I've seen to date. Thank you. My daughter has encouraged me to do one but I cannot top yours. As for the Kolsch, I had similar questions and results about the haze and bottling but I let it be and got great tasting beer with a little haze. I recently tried making an American Pale Ale with Kolsch yeast and got very interesting results (Whirlfloc took care of much, if not all haze) - after a repeat with some hop adjustments, I'll pass it on.
