Newbie here

Post #1 made 12 years ago
I've been extract brewing for some time and planning to go BIAB AG at the end of the month with a 70l kettle.

I lived several years in Germany (though come from the UK) and fell in love with German beers - especially smoked beer as I lived in Bamberg for a while (heaven) :)

I have been taking a look at BIABacus and came up with the attached recipe - would love to hear peoples thoughts (and whether I filled the fields correctly :) )

Looks good but I am by no means a BIABacus expert, someone should be along soon to critique your recipe.

You need to add either the IBU's you want or, if you have it, the End Of Boil Volume Ambient) into section D. You will then see the hop bill required and in section A the IBU(tins) field will reflect your desired IBU's.

I'm afraid I can't critique your recipe. I copy others when I want a new brew.

Thanks guys for your responses - majorphill thanks for the info - here the updated report/recipe

hmmm.... had to add the EOBV-A value - simply adding the IBU did not propagate the Hop bill to the report ...

Worked for me? (I've had some very dodgy stuff though happening in Excel lately and have had to close my whole computer down to get any Excel files to re-calculate - not just BIABacus. Very strange.)

When designing your own recipe, you will be really battling to get someone to be able to help you really well when dealing with an obscure style. Personally, the best advice I have is that you go for it. I think you have filled out the BIABacus really well so go for it except...

Do a 90 minute mash and a mash-out please.

;)
