Master Brewer
I read an article by beersmith about Brew-in-a-Bag and am interested in trying BIAB now. My problem is that I'm an extract brewer and would be jumping into all grain and BIAB at the same time. I've never done a mash profile and really don't know where to begin. I'm a risk taker but like to minimize the odds of failure as much as possible.
I would like to do another wheat but I've heard that's a bad place to start. My water profile here suites a wheat I think, though I have brewed a wonderful Irish Red from extract with no water treatment. My water has practically no minerals; Right off the snow pack.
Would any body be interested in a step by step for a neophyte all grain-er?
I have two complete extract brewing setups including a wort chiller and two 5 gal carboys. I have an 8.5gal and 5gal kettle to use.
