Incredibly helpful. Thank you. Doing my first brew in a bag with a Pliny the elder recipe.

Just getting into brewing, my turkey fryer kettle will work perfect. Thanks for the vid.

Great video! You make it seem so straight forward and easy! 🍺

I watched your video after j got my bag and this was very helpful . My all grain with bag went well for 1st batch and came out great

Awesome content as usual, Trent! This will help a lot of beginning brewers get into all grain Brewing. Thanks for the shout out. Cheers! 🍻

Best BIAB tutorial I've ever seen =) Well done! Will take a look on your other videos.

I’ve been watching loads of vids and this one is by far the best for someone trying to get into brewing! 👏

I'm brewing for more than 10 years and used all kinds of systems. Starting with a simple cooler + kettle, then upgraded to various two vessel systems with pumps, I recently thought I could settle with a Brewtools B40pro. Yes, it is nice, but somehow I was fascinated by simple systems. Thererfore I took an old kettle, bought a "the brew bag" and love this simple BIAB setup far more than my shiny B40... I think this is the lifecycle of homebrewing. If you are new to homebrewing, you can skip the cycle , save money and go straight to BIAB.

Great video on BIAB. Just saw your collab vid with Martin and decided to check your channel out. I've been doing BIAB for years now and its great, ive never felt the need to jump to a 3 tier system either.

Wow, great video, super helpful and simple to follow.

Thanks for the video, just getting started and decided to invest in a brewbag after this video!

Thanks. I'm actually downgrading from AG 3 vessel system to BIB and this was the perfect video tutorial 👌 🍻

squeezed the bag for the first time ever because of this vid lol hope your right that it doesn’t produce off flavors! 🤞🏾🤞🏾

Oatmeal cookies with the spent grains are pretty awesome

Great video! I’m a huge fan of the BIAB method and I agree that it makes great beer and is super simple!

Great video and explanation, I’ve been using this method for a good year and always gets great consistent results close to OG, when I first started I liked to experiment and put to much speciality grains in and never hit my required FG but still to the numbers and you will smash it. My mate gave me his grain farther and I still use this method. Some reason I find it a bit more purist and not like I’m cheating😂

Love this video!

I use a 240v Digiboil for my BIAB. Great temp control for mash and boil. Can do 20l (5 Gal) batches. Enjoyed your vids from New Zealand

This was an outstanding video. Loved how you covered everything so thoroughly for a beginner like myself. I’ve made many flavors of wine with great success and looking to move into brewing beer so your channel is definitely getting a sub from me. Thanks for what you do.

Thanks for adding metric units 🥳

😂 your work out for the week I love it ! Keep it up 🔥🔥

Did two batches of extract before I jumped into BIAB and it was the best thing I did for brewing. Way easier to get into than it seems and its without a doubt the perfect place to start. I did BIAB for a long time with batch sizes from 1-5 gallons, and even now the popular all in one systems effectively do the same thing! Also thanks for the shoutouts! Great video as always and congrats on the 2k subs, well deserved!

You my friend have a great thing going on here EASY TO FOLLOW very simple NOT INTIMIDATING at all which we know BREWING EQUIPMENT CAN BE . YOU HAVE GAINED A NEW SUBSCRIBER FOR A LONG TIME 😎🍺🙏❤👍

Most simple, and to the point vid I've seen so far. Thanks! Also some good ideas on the use of spent grains, I know some furry friends who would love a grain biscuit :)

Without BIAB, I would never have been able to get into homebrewing as I don't have the floor space for the three-tun setup. Being able to do everything in one kettle has saved a lot of time and maintenance in my brew days.

Love it could you email me the steps from start to finish, and how the end products look. It's me first time watching, but always has interest in brewing one batch. And the ingredients needed, your technique seems simple compared to other videos I watch few days. Thx much I love it.

Just found this video and i think its great. One question, how about the smell if youre doing it in a kitchen? Too powerful?

Great video! and I've got that same shirt!

I know this video is older but I can’t get enough of it. Just an FYI but I have been all grain brewing for around 5 years now and actually stopped using my two 10 gallon coolers and switched to BIAB just because it’s easier. I do still use my coolers occasionally for larger or complicated brews. Don’t listen to the negative talk about efficiency because I have actually had better efficiency than coolers because you end up being able to stir the mash more since you have all your volume in the kettle at once.

I have the anvil foundry but I’ve been experimenting a lot with 1 gallon batches lately and used BIAB for the first time on a 2 gallon cooler to mash in. I can vouch that is super cheap to start compared to building a HLT, and mash tun. I picked up a 2 gallon cooler on offer for $7 and the bag was $4

I take a pretty cavalier approach with most things in life but for some reason when I make homebrew beer videos analysis paralysis hits me really hard and I replay the living hell out of the videos I'm watching. With that said this video makes the whole process seem extremely comfy though. Now all I have to do is put some money aside every week to buy stuff xD.

All those spent grains might make a good substrate for mushroom farmers

GREAT VIDEO, I'M GONNA GIVE IT A TRY. Can I buy any all grain recipe kit and make it BIAB style? Peace ✌

The easiest way to chill wort is to dump 1 gallon of frozen hop ice on wort. boil hops in 1 gallon of distilled water freeze it overnight and when wort is ready just dump the frozen chunk of hop ice in the wort. Just make sure to account for the gallon of water since that hop ice is going to turn in to water.

I've got a question - maybe you can help. Will this bag from link will fit into 50l keg with lid cut off? I wanted to go for BIAB but most bags I come across are no good for my keg. I've also had another big pot if you could share dimension of one you using this can also help. IMO you have best homebrew channel. Very good work.

I did BIAB once , cheers 🍻

Getting into brewing and my first brew will be a brew in a bag. Is there a video of what to do next?

Love the video mate. But if I am using an electric urn can you leave it set at your steeping temperature instead of turning it off ?

Really really good video Trent! To be honest, it had a lot to do with me quickly switching from extract to BIAB. Just made my first batch and I'm lightyears ahead of my previous extract batches even on the first attempt. If you haven't covered it already, I'd be interested to know how you avoid trub in the fermenter when brewing all grain. Do you have such a video?

I've done BIAB for a few years now. From the very start I converted a 10 gallon brew kettle to electric by adding an element similar to those in electric water heater tanks. I just have access to 15 amps 120 volt outlets so I use it in combination with a conduction heat plate ( on a different breaker). Getting relatively quickly to mash and boil temperature has never been an issue. I recently added an Inkbird IPB-16 to control the element and it works like a charm.

Great content like always. I believe I'm going to do a few more extract kits, while I start to buy the equipment needed to do BIAB and a kegerator . FYI, your first two links to amazon are not working.

I have being doing extract kits for 5 years and I think is time to move to BIAB, I only hope it is as easy as it looks on your videos. I am starting with the Pumpkin one but can you do a Christmas Ale or a Winter warmer beer. Thanks again

If heat and solvent (water) doesn't extract too many tannins there is no way a human beings upper body strength would ever be enough to. If you put them into an auger press maybe, but just squeezing the bag will do nothing but help you collect more precious wort. I'm glad you addressed that, I hear it constantly.

I am sending this to my buddy so he will stop asking me questions. Thank you!

Well done! Really enjoying the channel. Joining the Discord.... now.

Just discovered this, and I don't drink/make alcohol BUT I do make bone broth. Could this work for bone broth? I'd need it to stay at a mid-hot temperature from 8 hours to days, and I wonder if the bag could handle that.

Hey Trent, do you ever teach how to edit videos? I would love to learn from you. The flow is great.

How did you chill it for the yest

Great video! I have this idea of put my brew bag inside my water cooler mash tun just to avoid recirculate the wort and spent less time. Do you think it is a good idea??

What is a good Pale Ale temp to brew at? 150F?

Great stuff man. Literally about to try my first biab in a few days and this was the best and most reassuring biab video i've seen yet..! Subbed ;) Quick question: I am doing a ginger beer recipe (not an actual ginger beer, but an APA with...ginger in it ;) ) - I plan to filter out the ginger after boil whilst funneling over to the fermenter. Is still ok to do this with all grains brews? I have absolutely nothing against trub or extra trub whatsoever, and actually want to give the yeast as many nutrients as possible during the ferment. However... too much ginger sediment in the fermenter is a different story and sometimes causes me all kinds of problems when making normal ginger beer, even after cold crash - makes bottling very difficult. Would you agree it's ok to run all this from a sieve whilst funneling into my fermenter? And 1 more question actually...! I almost always boil about half of my water (with the grains + ginger etc etc), funnel into fermenter, then add the 2nd half of water to the fermenter. Not only does this expedite the cooling process but it also just makes my life abit easier when boiling, my pot isn't ideal for doing the full quantity (I do 19L batches, just over 5 gals...) Any issues doing that? I always take my OG hydro reading after moving over to, mixing and oxygenating the wort in the fermenter with the non-boiled water. Thanks alot man! You probably wont even see this but wanted to pick your brain :D

How much extra grain do you add to make up for the decreased efficiency? Great video, by the way. Thanks.

Hey. I'm a recent subscriber looking to make the move from extract to BIAB for many of the reasons listed in this video. Love your stuff by the way. I'm conflicted on how big of a kettle to get. From what I've seen most people/forums recommend a minimum of 2x the final size of your batch. For example a 10 gallon kettle for a 5 gallon batch. I've also seen however many people reccomending the jump to a 15 gallon kettle. I was curious what your thoughts are/what size kettle you use.

Can BIAB apply for rice wine?

Hi! Thx for the useful informations. Just wondering what's the difference between mashing with the full amount of water vs adding clean water on top of the bag after the mash is done? My recipe calls for 12L of water for mashing for 22L of wort before boiling, what if I just mash with 22L? Sounds more convenient Thx

Hi do you need to clean and sanitise your cooling rack?

3:21Almost didn't see that little dog lol

👍🏼

Quick question as me and a friend have just started are saying hit your target water heat, turn off heat and let it brew....? We were trying to keep it at a constant 65c heat...

Hello, please help! I'm going to BIAB by first time, I always use fly sparge, but now with BIAB way. What is the temperature range to sparge water? thanks in advance.

What were those things that looked like puff balls floating in your wort? (At 1:58)

My grain absorption usually runs about 0.4 quarts per pound. So with a 10 pound grain bill, if I dough in with 4 gallons, I'm only going to get 3 from the first runnings. My batch sparge will be another 4 gallons. And I typically get that all back because the grain is already wet. Oh darn, forgot to mention this is in a mash tun, not BIAB. I'll typically boil off 1.5 of the 7 gallon pre-boil volume. The hardest part for any new brewer is figuring out their system. EVERYONE'S system and technic will be different. The BEST part is you get to brew and drink A LOT of beer figuring it out! 😁🍻🍺 Happy Brewing!

what about the gravity, hygrometer, and chiller? Is that stuff also not really required? I'm asking to keep costs down lol

You can use a sous vide for precise water temperature.

how to prevent scorching of the brewbag? Is a bag made of cotton better than nylon?

when you brew all grains in in a bag, when you take out the grains of the pot, could you reuse the grains to make another batch of beer? what would happen

Thinking about doing BIAB but still using my mash tun to control temp, anyone have experience with that???

recommended kettle size for 10G BIAB to make 8%IPA?? My grain bill is 30 lbs

What do you think about brewvide vessi

What's the deal with the bag touching the bottom? Do you need a false bottom to keep it from making contact? I'm thinking that at some point, there would likely be a situation where the temp drops too far during mash and you need to light the burner.

Hi, one question for yeast nutritient, is it okay to use wine yeast nutrient for beer brewing, since theres no yeast nutrients in my country for beer brewing specifically, cheera!

When the water hit the temp and you add in the grain. Did you turn off the heat completely? Meaning at that point you're just letting the grain sit in the water at it's current temp?

Grains brewed in the beginning then cooking longer with hops or other added grains?

Trent, Do you have experience with step mashing BIAB?

Where can I buy grains from?

do you reuse the bag?? if so....how do you clean it?

Have you ever tried a sous vide stick

Man I want to start brewing so bad but I know my ass will be drunk every day that's the only thing stopping me..😅

did I see Reese's puffs in your mash?

3 vessel systems are way too expensive for brewing methods these days

you are almost there : try NO STIRRING AT ALL AND VERY SLOW HEATING (24 HOURS) IN AN INSULATED VESSEL

I see, can be easy, with my ways, do the best brew .soon . copying...done , well
