I want to do my first biab, but I'm confused by the water volume I need. I only add water once at the beginning right?
I've read people saying a 5 gallon batch with biab needs a 10 gallon kettle. My kettle is only 7 gallons, so can I only do a 3 1/2 gallon batch?
And should I start with 4 1/2 gallons assuming a one gallon boil off?
Why can't I start with 6 and let it boil down to 5?
Thanks
Greg
