First BIAB is in the books

Post #1 made 10 years ago
Yesterday I brewed my first BIAB and my first all grain, and my first all grain I crushed myself and the first time I used my carona (knockoff) mill.

A whole lotta firsts. I hope all the firsts dont add up to crap'ola.

I live in a remote area (an Island) and getting ingredients is a challenge but I made friends with the local brewery brewmaster and agreed to sell me some grain. He said it was Munich 2 row.

He sold me 10 lbs so I brewed 10 lbs worth lol

Figured I would do my first SMASH while I was at it.

I mashed 10 lbs M 2 row @ 154-152 for an hour.

1oz CTZ for 60

2 oz CTZ for 10 and 2 oz at flame out.

Wort tasted ok, bitter but ok. It is CTZ after all.

OG was 1.043 I tried to figure out my efficiency but the math hurt my head.

SO I guess I will tell you how it tastes in 2 weeks when I keg it.
