Simple BIAB Calculator

I created this simple calculator so that I could get all of my numbers right. I've found that it works extremely well for me. It's easy to use and does only what you need to brew a batch.

Let me know what you think and if there's anything I should add/change.

Does the strike water temp field work in Excel then? Maybe it's just OpenOffice that it's broken for?

Wow, I just found this thread and I'm impressed by the progress. I downloaded the facelifted version and found that strike water temp doesn't seem to work. I get "Err:512" in OpenOffice. The transition from metric to US isn't very smooth. Lots of values need to be modified. Planning on using this fo...

I just tried the second recipe after about 2 weeks in the bottle. It's hands down the best beer I've ever made. VERY good. The third recipe is ready to be racked to secondary now.

3 CDA recipies

I've brewed all three of these recipes. The first turned out extremely well and I wanted to do an Imperial version of it with some changes. So the second is based off it with some changes to the hops and grain bill. The second is currently conditioning in bottles, but tastes GREAT so far. The third ...

Yeah, if it were more complicated I wouldn't have the energy to brew as much as I do.

Right after I dump the grains I wash mine inside out in soapy water and then rinse in clean water. Then the night before my next batch, I throw it in the washer.

It's ALWAYS OK to drink a Ruination. Easily Stone's best beer. Levitation is a close second.

Welcome along mrgstiffler, so have I read that right? CDA's are black IPA's? If so I have my first in a keg that will be ready in ~3 weeks. I sure hope it's as nice from the keg as it was from the fermenter. Yes, CDA is basically a Black IPA. An excellent style that's become my favorite. I hope you...

mrgstiffler, Whats all the hubbub about Cascadian Dark Ales? I hear they are trying to make it a new catagory in BJCP? CDAs are pretty popular where I'm from. Deschutes, Widmer and Stone all have great examples out. Take an IPA and add some dark roasted malts to it. The trick is getting the balance...

Hey, I'm from around the Portland, OR area. I do 7 gallon AG BIAB ales. I've started doing a lot of Cascadian Dark Ales lately. During the week, I work in IT.
