I am going to be brewing my next batch in a BIAB method. I have a 15 Gallon cooler as a Mash Tun, and will be doing a no sparge BIAB mash in the cooler. Then I will drain to my kettle and continue brew process. I am new to the BIAB method, I will be buying beersmith before the brewday to help me dial in my method. The question I am wondering is, will beersmith be able to recognize my no-sparge cooler BIAB method so I would get the right amount of water to use to get the right total amount of pre-boil water volume? Or, lets say the pre-boil volume is supposed to be 6.5 gallons, would I just mash with the 6.5 gallons in the cooler, then drain to kettle? I would assume that I would get less than 6.5 gallons after mashing tho.
Thanks for all of the help.
