Title: Bags for BIAB?
Post by: fishjam45 (Colin) on April 09, 2014, 09:34:00 PM
Hi all,

I'm looking to order a bag to give BIAB a go.  I was looking at www.custombiab.com (http://www.custombiab.com) and like the idea of a customised bag for grain and also a bag for hops. Sadly there doesnt seem to be any order slots available on that site, does anybody know of any other similar websites?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Eoin,
Are hop bags any good for pellets?

Yep, tie them up and throw them in.

I've used them this weekend to exactly that end when I did the Oud Bruin.

Let us know here when you have slots available again as I want bag for mashing as well for small pilot batches. Cheers.

@Eoin
When a mashing or hop bag is used for hops and gets all gunked up how easy is it to clean for the next brew?

Easy, we used one material once that was not very good, it wasn't the standard voile that we use, I think the purchase was a mistake, can't remember, but that material was staining from a normal boil. The stuff we're using now doesn't stain and cleans with a simple rinse.

Any slots soon?

Slots going up at 2100 this evening, you've got to be fast though as they'll sell out in minutes potentially. If you miss a slot then sign up for the newsletter to be notified of new slots again
