I am almost certain that the lessons i have learnt while doing BIAB are down to me being extremely lazy and trying to cut too many corners as well as trying to do things as cheap as possible.

After losing three or four batches and cutting fewer corners each brew, i am almost at the stage where i may be able to drink something i’ve brewerd

So…

• No Chilling in the kettle is a rubbish idea…. its not sealed, the beer is sitting on all the break material. It just shouldn’t be done
• Temperature control is a must.  It’s generally just way too hot to brew without it. Guaranteed to get a heat wave the second the beer touches the fermenter.
• As ive said before, brewing AG without a thermometer is like flying blind. Use one!
• Use a decent no rinse santiser. Its easy and cheap

From the list you can see i was just being lazy. Should have most of the laziness taken out of my brewing process now. We’ll see how the next batch goes.
