Been a while since I brewed and just purchased some new equipment to do my first AG batch. It's been several months since I brewed my last batch and with the new steps for BIAB I wanted to verify I wasn't missing any obvious steps. Below is what I have lined up, am I skipping anything?
3 Days before brew day
-Yeast Starter - 1.4 Quarts Water, 4.5 Ounces DME
1 Day before brew day
-Place yeast starter in refrigerator
-Prep equipment and fill kettle with 7.97 gallons of water with camden tablet
Brew Day
-Sanitize everything
-Remove starter from fridge and decant
-Bring water to 156°
-Add grains and stir, verify target 149° temp
-Cover kettle and wait 60 minutes
-Heat to 170 and wait 10 minutes
-Remove bag and drain/squeeze
-Verify 6.62 gallons water and check OG (target 1.042)
-Bring to a boil and add 60 minute addition
-Place chiller and whirlfloc in 15 minutes before end
-Add 10 minute addition
-Turn off heat and start chiller flow
-Bring temp to ~70°, check OG (target 1.056)
-Drain to ferment bucket and shake
-Pitch yeast, cover, move to ferment location
Thanks in advance!
