      i made a 1.25gal starter the other day with 1.5# 2-row and .5# rolled oats (steeped at 170F for 15 min) and when i was done, i had an extremely cloudy wort. comprised of such fine particulate i still got some into my flasks. does BIAB normally have such large amounts of trub, or could it have been the oatmeal? the mesh size on my material i made the bag from is quite a bit larger than the finest sized hop bags, so i crushed pretty darn large. any ideas?

      I'd stick with the calculator, you will find that it is surprisingly accurate and once you have 5 + brews done you can dial in your averages and it gets even more accurate.
      
      As to hops I'd use the Fuggles or EGK or a mix of the two :think: you ain't going to use many with a 2 gallon brew.
      
      Start another thread if you need to post your recipe and someone will check it over.
