      I have done 3 BIAB recipes and my FG has come in high on all of them. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. For this recipe I did a fly sparge and my OG was at 1.054 when done.

      My BRIX looks to be around 6.1-6.2 now.
      
      I think the tool I was using to adjust the BRIX to FG was wrong. All of this information has helped. Thank you.

      Does anyone have a BIAB clone recipe? It's one of my favorite beers but I have not been unable to find a BIAB recipe.
