So if the dead loss in my mash tun is very small, let’s call it negligible and I'm using the same l:g ratio as if I were doing BIAB then the only difference would be absorption? Is that supposed to be better because the bag squeeze out more wort? It seems that the two approaches are pretty close and...

So given this definition would you say that the practice of combining all the grist and the full volume of liquor in a mash tun at the beginning of the mash and draining it all at once is basically identical to BIAB? I guess the MT is just your "bag" and the only difference would be that perhaps a f...

Thanks for the great work, this is very interesting. Would it be possible to post an unlocked version of the spreadsheet so that I can convert it to US units?
