Thank you SO much for having me come down and brew with you! BIAB is really so easy to get started and I'm glad you got to see how quick a brew day can be. It was a blast and I'm always down to collab again! Cheers braj 🍺
Cinnamon toast crunch christmas beer!
A tip I found, is divide the grain and use multiple small bags. If they don't have a tie string Zip tie them shut adding a additional zip tie loop for a hanging. Take a 6-7 foot piece of 1x3 strapping with a hook screwed to one end and stick it through the handle of the pot. It will lean just right and make the perfect bag hanger right over your pot. Hang it, let it drain then squeeze it out. It's almost effortless.
This way they are much easier to handle and you can squeeze them out much more efficiently.
I didn't expect the channel to be so hilariously surreal when I first subscribed.
Pro tip, if you go to a propane exchange, the tanks they give you are only filled to 3/4 capacity. It's cheaper and you get more gas if you go to a place that fills the tanks for you.
That's awesome advice! Solid feedback Liam
Even the place that refills they refill to 3/4. Propane tanks aren’t supposed to be fully filled
@@punjab1captain that's not true. A partially filled tank is more dangerous than a fully filled tank, because there is room for the liquid fuel to turn into explosive gas. Also, when you refill, you pay by the gallon only for the fuel you get . When you exchange, you're paying much more than the price it would cost to refill a tank to full.
Like the recommendation to skip straight to biab over beginning with extract, but it seems like your only reason is affordability. My take is that you can start with extract so you can save on time and expense, and get used to the workflow on the front end but the downside is that you don't really learn much. Taking that smaller step to experiencing a full brew day is so much more gratifying on the tail end when you know that you ran it the full way from grain to tap/grain to bottle.
Getting that sticker! This is the video that I wish I saw 4 years ago! Awesome seeing Trent and also Trevwho's brewery!
See you Wednesday?
When I first got into Homebrewing I started AG with BIAB and was the first and only guy in my home brew club that made beer that way. It’s a fantastic way to make beer.
Yeah. I'm glad that it's more socially acceptable now. Cheers Trans am!
There are guys in my club that have $5,000 systems. They love to show them off, I just trip!
Ok, a beer video with music from Mega Man?? I'm so in!
Nice catch!
Two Braj’s worth watchin’! 🍻
Cheers Stars!
bro, that propane tank trick is genius
New homebrewer here(about 10 brews) I have found in my country extract brewing is about double the price of grain brewing! I have however done exclusively kits so far to decide the styles of beers I want to brew. For the most part kits are decent(definitely better than store bought) but the control and quality is far better with all grain. I've actually just ordered my first bag and grain bill so I guess wish me luck on the next step! Also I had an incredible beer called Kirin Ichiban(Japanese) they use exclusively extract and it was one of the most beautiful and complex beers I've ever had! I guess I'm saying don't hate on extracts they have their place! 😂😂😂😂 love the channel keep it up!
Thanks for the video CH and @TheBruSho ! I’m definitely going to try this method since I think it’ll be a good transition from extract to all grain.
I HIGHLY recommend it JM, cheers braj!
15:00 Electric is quite a bit faster if you use a 5500W water heater element in the tank. And you never have to wonder if you have enough propane for the brew day.
BIAB in a modified Tea Urn is how I made the jump to all grain 10 plus years ago, we used net curtain for our bags. Just bought on of your shirts. Cheers lads
Much love Crewewolf! Thank you for the support!
I'm kind of a cider newb,,,,havent actually "brewed" anything yet....,but between this and his hopped cider vid yall almost have me convinced i could do this......
good stuff man....
We've actually got a cider video coming up, cheers Theron! #coolboarders3
I've only brewed 1 beer (Extract Cream Ale). Don't have a chiller and it came out a lot more bitter than I'd hoped, but this is simple enough I might actually get a bag and do this. Thanks Braj
-Braj in Oklahoma
Of course CH has a flip phone! Love you guys!
Thx for watching Nate, cheers!
WWHHHHAA Crazy seeing myself in these videos! Gotta end the vid with an MBC
ha i was gonna ask you first, but i thought I'd surprise you instead. I'm glad your not pissed, cheers Jus!
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE No issues here, I have the raw footage of almost all my stuff so feel free to reach out if the overlays get in the way
Another solid one, braj! Loving the big ol horseshoe lipper you threw in there.
ha thx for always showing love on the stream! #dipperlife
Props to proper propane , solid collab It felt like I was there drinking and talking like Mike Tyson by the end of the day haha Cheers 🍻🍻🤙🏼
"Pigeon Coop IPA"
I LOVE when you guys Brew like the old Days !!!!!!!!!
Bringing Propane back!
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE Hot Damn, Thats what im talking about . I stopped using My Grainfather boxed it up . Because I missed Brew Kettles and Propane !!!!!!!!
Aussie here. We used to get big eye ipa here. My first favourite ipa. Sculpin was the be all... 10 years later, we don't even see imports. Aussie beers are world class.
Solid feedback keith!
2 of my fav brajs using BIAB like a boss. I love my anvil man but I love my BIAB just as much and I’m always using it in my malt pipe and now no more stuck mash for me, lol…
do BIAB on your Anvil. Just throw all 7 gallons in at the beginning, cheers Tom!
Your the man TA!
This episode has a banging soundtrack. I don’t remember what game/games the music is from, but bringing back memories. Prost
megaman 2 and 3! #nes
When I replaced my propane tanks - I went to U-Haul. Tanks cost the same as big box stores, comes with a gas gauge - shows you how much is left - and, as commented below - when they fill, they fill it up, and they threw in the first fill! Done BIAB 4ever...I do recirculate, and I use a sous vide machine to do the mash - saves a ton of gas, but takes a while, so I turn it on in the morning when I wanna brew and come back to it later - good to go! Using the pump to recirc, I get good mash efficiency and no hot spots. By the way, was that Dexter's (Dexter's Lab) HOT MOM on your kegerator door? Braj On!
that's amazing feedback cheers braj!
Sticker! Ordered up!! Thanks, you made my keg happy, and me too! :) Great video again! You and Trent together is awesome! You guys are crushing it!
Stickers aka "Kegerator Tattoos" lol. Thx for the support William, cheers!
I did exactly what you suggested - jumped into all-grain by doing BIAB. Best way to go. I think a lot of beginners feel like they have to test the waters by doing extract first. You don't - with BIAB the process is so easy and affordable, and you get fantastic results.
I'm with you 100% torpedo!
Extract is a messy bitch too
That Megaman 3 Wily's Castle hit (at the brewery) is a banger. Good selection.
haha you know. you know
BIAB 4 Life! Cheers Braj!!
BIAB rips!
I love all these videos coming out trying to get new people into the hobby! Great vid and great collab!
Stay on that grind NV!
Doing the lords work as usual! BIAB is great… the only plus for starting with 5 gallon extract is you can likely brew your first batches with a pot in your cabinet and top up in the fermenter and you’re not paying for a 10 gallon kettle. I know that’s what i did when $100 for a pot seemed extravagant. A bunch of extract kits are formulated that way.
Good call! If you can score that $100 kettle on craigslist for half the price then I saw go for it!
Thanks a lot for the video 😊. I have one doubt. Please pardon my infinitisimally tiny knowledge on homebrewing. But how do you get rid of the sediment at the bottom of keg. Does it not come out when we pour out the beer?😊
Hey CH another great video
Not sure if anyone has said already you can also check your gas bottle by running a small kettle of fresh boiled water down the side and you will be able to see the amount of gas is left in the propane tank.
Bros, thank you for playing final fantasy airship. At 16 minutes. Love! It!
Glad you enjoy it!
Awesome video as always braj! keep on preaching
Deal!
BIAB is so easy, you can make legit craft beer for bugger all $$$
no doubt!
I'm thinking I might need to get you a better pic of me in a H4L shirt! That one is so bad. But so good. I'm tormented! Cheers Braj! Also great intro to BIAB, I probably should have had a Trent for my first BIAB.
We are on our way lol! Cheers James
Great as always!
Thx for supporting EN!
best video you've made man...Skål (danish for chug it)
One thing to keep in mind with propane in CA is it's legal to fill by volume here instead of by weight like most states. SO, if you go by weight, don't count on all of your fills weighing the same.
Duly noted, cheers Justin!
Great collab! Lean into the money saving brother - make a yeast starter with that lutra. Pitch half of it , save the other half. Repeat 4 ever!
solid feedback JW, i'll look into it. Cheers!
Weighing the propane tank was an awesome tip. Never thought to do that. Cheers braj
Cheers Double D!
Great collab too!!!
Thx for being cool about me stealing your footage :)
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE anytime!!!
Good video! That's awesome you're getting into biab, definitely the easiest way to brew. Id be interested in one of those hoppy hour stickers, and a hb4l sticker also.
I've been using a whirlpool adapter when cooling the wort, works great to help drop the temp fast. Might be worth looking into
ha you need to write for H4L. Can you send me that link for the whirlpool adapter? Cheers braj!
Looks like my reply was either deleted or didn't make it up, if you got it and deleted it no problem. If not its called
SPINCYCLE WELDLESS KETTLE WHIRLPOOL RETURN from brewhardware.
In memory the best beer I ever tasted was a wheat beer at Tulsa Brewing Company in Tulsa in like 1996 or 1997. I had a slice of orange in it. It just tasted fresh.
Really awesome video! I have a couple friends looking to get into brewing and I tell them to try brew in a bag. I’ll definitely be sending them this video link. Also, Sunset Riders in the background was awesome!
Thx for the luv Dano!
Remember to weigh an empty tank as well! Need to know when it's time to take that bad boy back for a new one
Absolutely. If you have a tank that still has a label on.. it'll read 15lbs (which means empty). Cheers Vali
Awesome video love Trent's channel think that made your pop up on my RUclips. Sculpin only had a few here in SE Alabama there is a habanero or ghost pepper that's good. We have a few breweries here, the best is Folklore brewery and meadery.
Thanks for watching! Cheers Will
08:48 Someone loves Dexter's mom.
It's great to see a brew day with flames! where's the challenge with electric brewing?! I hope to see you and Steve tomorrow. Thanks!
Can't wait! Cheers Gerard!
CH rocking the burner phone?
Back to the past!
Aussie robobrew simplified this
yew!
Missing the brajcast brother. Time to get those rookie number up. PROST.
yeah it kinda just transitioned into this ruclips.net/channel/UCPnbjrHhr3618ywTtRrzmWw
No sweat brother. Keep on keeping it on.
Around here there are few nano-style breweries that only do small batches on their own for few bars. But then they also do contract brewing at larger breweries and sell bottles in supermarkets and those beers are not even close to those on tap.
Solid feedback, and thank you for watching UG!
Damn MBC would come up as I’m babysitting 😂….
lol sorry braj
Would you now prefer this way to using a mash tun?
Great video, CH! I love watching you learn along with us.
Also, can you put the hoppy hour up on Spotify or somewhere as an audio track? I’d love to listen to it while driving or exercising.
Thx for listening John! I"ll look into that right away!
To save money, I make my own malted barley and rye lol.
A 50lb bag of fresh home made malt costs me about $16
How do you avoid scorching? Would it not make sense to put something in kettle to hold bag above heat source ?
Love the chugging part of the vid!
you're not gonna scorch unless you bring it to boil, cheers!
So I have only done one extract and it's still fermenting. I want to give the bag a try but still want to keep things simple. I am looking to improve my beer experience (I have had beer all over the world) and our American domestics sort of suck.
Cheers Peter!
Love the mega man Music
Great catch!
Thanks for the video guys, I really enjoyed it. Just a question though, if you already have the false bottom cooler mashtun, could you do the same thing with that? To me its easier to clean the cooler than it is to try and get every little bit of stuck piece of grain clinging to the bag.
that would absolutely work! (as long as everything is boil proof, cheers!
::adjusts waist belt:: yeeeahhh that looks like a one clamper
KORE 4 LIFE!
Hey, thank you so much for the video.
Two quick questions, I've always heard that squeezing the bag was bad. That you would squeeze out tannins. I take it this is false.
Also is there no sparging with Brew in a bag?
Thank you again!
Squeeze away. We didn't sparge. Just use more water for the mash. Cheers!
sup sup, I just started following bru sho and did 2 BIAB, a sweet stout and a hazy IPA, still fermenting, I ll see how it goes, but I stil sparge some just like 15mins to wash the grain...
I truly appreciate your subbing to him Fernando, cheers!
Thank you Fernando, cheers!
My lovely mother died a few years ago but if I had one wish it would not be to bring her back for a day, but to be featured in your mandatory beer chug montage. Can we make this happen? 😂
Send us a clip to the fb page lol!
Boob sweat 4 Life! Great to meet you @thebrusho
Need to shoot a video at south o!
Hi CH I just discovered your channel and have been binge watching your videos for a few days now, I have been using the BIAB method now for about a year with varying results and have never tried a 30 min Mash or Boil and quite fancy trying out this Pseudo BIAB recipe. Could you please give me a bit more recipe detail so I can scale the recipe to my equipment, I use Beer Smith, do you have an equipment profile and recipe I could use ? Cheers
I spent waaaay to much money building a 3 vessel system and I use my old faithful Grainfarher more often…
solid feedback, Cheers andy B!
If you pour warm water on the side of your propane tank, you can feel the level of propane. No more weighing!
duly noted! Cheers Hobbit!
Been waiting for this BrajLord!! Ready to try a 10G Batch in 15G kettle. What is the max grain bill that will fit in 15G kettle ?? Max water I can add for mashing???
No clue! I haven't tried it yet. But i'm gonna figure this whole BIAB system out!
I brew with 15g kettles and Im also not sure how much grains they can hold, I will say I usually use around 11 gallons of water and have used 20 pounds of grains with room to spare.
@@kevinfidler8074 Thank you will keep checking because I try to make higher gravity IPA’s and my grain bill is 30 lbs for 10G batch
@@tman9338 You're welcome. You could always work your way up, 20lbs, 25lbs, etc and see if it looks like 30lbs will fit. Keep in mind water loss too, both from steam and from the grains soaking up water. Good luck!
@@kevinfidler8074 So did u use a pulley, ladder or a friend to pull bag?? Also where did u get grate to squeeze/drain bag of extra sugar???
Mash temp control is Scary whit BIAB!
Cheers Jan!
FIRST, yea collab!
late upload, but thank you for being here!
TIL to ferment in a keg (mind blown)! Hey CH what pressure do you set your spunding valve at during fermentation?
10 psi cheers!
Great video 😎👍
Thanks for the visit
Thanks for all your great videos! Really wanna start all grain brews and get away from LME. Would like to know details since I am on a retired budget as well. Like.. Brew Bag? Where to get cheap? What size is it considered? Cheap alternatives like maybe Net Laundry Bag? Some dude told me to use Paint Strainers, which is cool for Hop Pellets.. but not grain bags. Insight and some tips would be super more awesomer bro! Stuck with 5 gallon batches for now. THANKS!
PS. Lot's of us old retired farts out here tryna do this $#!T on a super lean budget too bro. ;)
Amazon!
Chaotic! ..
Cheers batch!
How does the cooler chiller hook up?
What is a good average efficiency with biab vs sparging?
Whatever it takes to hit your desired OG

Emerald isle on wednesday
BIAB would have made homebrewing so much easier to join 5 years ago
I 100% agree
It’ll clear out in 2-3 weeks by itself in the keg
Yeah i think so too, cheers!
There wasn't any mention of the bag touching the bottom and melting when the flame is on. What did you do to mitigate that possibility?
We killed the heat at 160F, added grains and bag, and then pulled the bag out when we fired the gas back on
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE Sorry, I'll clarify. The BruShow guy said that if the temp drops too far he just turns the heat back on to raise it, but didn't mention anything about possibly melting the bag which could happen.
@@FoScoJo you could lift the bag and secure with a clamp if your worried about burning it. But should only need to turn the heat on for a minute or two to get back temp
Based off your convo at the end could it also be that your tastes have changed
Nice vids You reached Denmank
New brewer looking in 🙂
Welcome aboard!
What’s the water to grain ratio? That’s my biggest question about BIAB
We started with 6 gallons and ended up with 4.5 gallons using 8lbs of grain. And then a 30 minute boil
I was a little confused about the part at the end of the 30 minute boil when he pulled out the bag and said something about getting it to 170F for "mash out". But I'm a BEGINNER beginner, so this is probably standard shit?
💯
If it wasn't for BIAB I'd be doing extract still. Too lazy for traditional all grain.
Shoutout to the coffee braj (forgot his name) who you did a podcast with a while ago for introducing it to me. I switched over to BIAB after that video.
Ha, that's my buddy Mondo. Cheers!
Mega man
Video idea. Put the Foundry to the "all in one system" test. One I wanted to do but never have time. After chilling wort. Just use it as a fermenter.
EDIT: Just saw the 80s RETRO | black T shirt. How can I not....
Yeah you can definetely BIAB with the foundry. I'd just start it with all 7 gallons of water at strike. Cheers Maso!
I know BIAB with the foundry. I'm saying after chilling wort. No transfer to fermenter . Put airlock where the circulating arm goes. Clamp it down. Ferment.
I am appalled.... a flip phone?!
I've never slept better since I went back to it!
Say that again 3 times fast! Lol!
Wish ya explained a bit more...
Mash out step not necessary for full volume BIAB. Conversion stops when you pull the bag. Use the minutes I just saved you wisely, mon ami.
very irie!
TIL: I use the same scale as H4L
right on, cheers Greg!
Hey CH , Doing a brew to bag vid tomorrow up up here in Canada on "All Beer Inside" inspired by yer shit braj!! Hopefully we can collab one day to inspire others to start brewing and keep brewing...keep it up braj,... later Drew
damn should read "grain to glass" vid...my bad Cheers Drew..we will be bagging it.
heck yeah Drew, cheers!
Why are you squeezing the grain bag?!
Looks like Grainfather has been writing the public hairs found in bags fake reviews again
very cool!
I like the idea of BIAG, but I'm too cheap to buy the bags and extra grain for every batch!! Plus skipping a sparge feels like a crime to me. Yea yea I know....you pour hot water over the bag, but we all know that's not doing much extraction, just makes you feel a little better about wasting grain. Combo's ultra was the shit by the way.... fucking loved killer instinct SNES. ULTRA, ULTRA ULTRA.......
Nice catch Mike! And no you don't have to use a new bag every time
I'm so lost, 30min mash and 1 week fermentation. Must be missing something.
