Hi all,

I am from Coos Bay, Oregon. I've brewed a handful of batches of beer with extract over the last couple years but haven't been able try all grain yet, I've been thinking about BIAB for a while now as the method to use to switch over. I am a student so part of the appeal of BIAB is that there isn't a large cost to get into it.
I found the site today with a google search - seems great so far.

Cheers,
-Rob

So I came across this site from homebrewtalk.com. Looks like this may be the easiest way to make the jump to all grain. The guy's at the local shop here in Denver have said that the have a few customers brewing this way. Will let you know how it works out.

First post from me, a industrial sparky in Christchurch, NZ. I've made half a dozen kits, some with speciality grain, and I'm looking forward to taking my brewing up a notch or two as far as quality is concerned, without it getting too expensive. BIAB looks like the way to go. Hopefully my new brew pot arrives this week, I'll be sewing up a bag in time for my first BIAB this weekend

Hey all,

Name is James, from Melbourne, Australia. I've been brewing Fresh Wort Kits for the past little while and am craving some more control over my recipes so stepping in to BIAB. I also very much enjoy long walks on the beach and meaningful conversations about my innermost emotions.

Cheers,
James

I brewed extract prior to FWK's. Put me off brewing for a little while... I could get so close to the beer I wanted, but it just never tasted quite right.

Hi all,

Rob here and I'm in the Gippsland, Victoria area. I've been doing K&K's for about 6 years now and just started to do a few extracts (Chimay Blue clone currently bottle conditioning) and though I'm happy with the K&K's/Extracts, I'm slowly getting more curious with the AG/BIAB brewing.

Cheers & beers.

Rob

Hi Everybody.

I'm from NC. I've been extract/steep brewing off and on for about 10 years total. The all-grain hump has always seemed impossible to get over given the space and time constraints that always seem to crop up. I found a brew in a bag method on a different site and that eventually led me here. I'm excited about the possibilities and look forward to trying this method. This looks like a great site with a wealth of info.

Hi all

Neil here from just outside Liverpool in the uk,Jumped head first into B.I.A.B... got 2 brews under my belt now,first brew went a bit wrong with me havin a trip to A&E with a burn to my arm.... The brew was very nice as i have never brewed before.... 2Nd brew went fantastic as they say you learn from your mistakes ( first brew based on a blacksheep brewery bitter from yorkshire UK, 2nd brew was based on a brew from theakstons Brewery from yorkshire UK... the 3Rd Brew is about to commence when my grain arrive in the next few days... This site i stumbled across while scannin the web for info on brewing your own ale,its been a very good read now and hopefully in the future.

Cheers to every one that runs this site...

Hello all!

Checking in from Arizona, USA. This is hot desert country if your not familiar with the location. I have been out of brewing for about 15 years, but I have recently started back up. I have experience in extract and partials. I have been gathering up equipment over the years to go AG, but not quite there yet. However I have enough for a BIAB (IMHO) and wanted to give it a shot. Way back when, we had kicked around this idea about brewing everything in a bag, but never did much about it, but like I said, I quite brewing for about 15 years about that time....

I have a recipe I would like to try with BIAB, but could use some pointers and water volumes and strike temps to compensate for gain bill, things like that. I believe that might be covered in the calculator, but obviously I can't see that until I post this "hello world" type of post.... so maybe I can get my own answers from that.

I have a converted 1/2 keg (17 gal) kettle. I will be adding a site glass and drain to that shortly, so that should allow me to do 5 gal brews and and depending on what threads you read, it should work for most 10 gal brews if I'm careful. I plan on making my own bag either from store bought material or a common curtain that our hardware stores sell here in the US. I don't remember the exact name of the material everyone refers to but it starts with a "V" (Viole or something like that).

I found out about you site from reading the BIAB section over at HBT..... so because I wanted to give BIAB a try I figured I would swing by and check you guys out.

Well that is about it for now.

Hey,
I'm Steve from Newcastle, NSW, AUS. I've been kit and estract brewing for about 2 years and am wanting to make the switch to All-Grain. I foudn this site through AHB and i've decided to go BIAB instead of 3V. Will be purchasing a 70L SS Kettle in the next week or so and hope to be doing my first BIAB brew soon.
I work in IT.

Hey There-

I'm in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Been brewing for about 10 years off and on. I'm planning to use my converted keg as a vessel. Can I get 10G yield out of a 15 gallon keg with BIAB?
