How to BREW IN A BAG For Beginners | BIAB Psuedo Lager ft. @TheBruSho

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 🍺

bro, that propane tank trick is genius

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?😊

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?

Say that again 3 times fast! Lol!

Mega man

I'm so lost, 30min mash and 1 week fermentation. Must be missing something.

Based off your convo at the end could it also be that your tastes have changed

Would you now prefer this way to using a mash tun?

How does the cooler chiller hook up?

best video you've made man...Skål (danish for chug it)

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.

Wish ya explained a bit more...

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 didn't expect the channel to be so hilariously surreal when I first subscribed.

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.

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

What is a good average efficiency with biab vs sparging?

Nice vids You reached Denmank
New brewer looking in 🙂

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. ;)

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!

Mash temp control is Scary whit BIAB!

This episode has a banging soundtrack. I don’t remember what game/games the music is from, but bringing back memories. Prost

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.

Aussie robobrew simplified this

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.

Bros, thank you for playing final fantasy airship. At 16 minutes. Love! It!

BIAB is so easy, you can make legit craft beer for bugger all $$$

TIL to ferment in a keg (mind blown)! Hey CH what pressure do you set your spunding valve at during fermentation?

Chaotic! ..

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.

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

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!

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.......

WWHHHHAA Crazy seeing myself in these videos! Gotta end the vid with an MBC

Of course CH has a flip phone! Love you guys!

BIAB would have made homebrewing so much easier to join 5 years ago

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

I LOVE when you guys Brew like the old Days !!!!!!!!!

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!

What’s the water to grain ratio? That’s my biggest question about BIAB

It’ll clear out in 2-3 weeks by itself in the keg

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.

Two Braj’s worth watchin’! 🍻

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.

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!

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 Megaman 3 Wily's Castle hit (at the brewery) is a banger. Good selection.
