Thanks goulaigan,
Appreciate it, will brew another next week and see how I get on. Hopefully OG will improve with all the hints I picked from the site.

Hi everyone,
Ned here from sunny Ireland. Just did my first BIAB brew (helles bock). Efficiency wasn't as planned so I started scouting for info and got some great hints from this site. Work full time as a brewer but brewing in the garage is very different to the day job. Once again great site.
