BIAB/Extract Brewing Pot

I'm pretty sure that even with BIAB you will be doing full boils and boiling down to 5 gals.

Any time your'e doing full wort boils, you want as much head space in the brew kettle as you can get. Boil overs happen to everyone, but the more space in the kettle, the less they will happen to you.

Most full boils start out at 6-6 1/2 gals and boil down to 5 from there. There's no way you will be able to avoid a boilover in a 30 qt. (6 1/2 gal) pot. (This is from my experience when my boil pot was 35 qts).

HTH-

I do FWB's in a 30qt pot all the time. And by the way 30qt=7.5 gal.

As far as the BINAB stuff I have no idea.

I collect wort from about 13 1/2 to 14 1/2 gallons and I brew in a 15 gallon kettle. I use Bugs method..a little finess and a spray bottle. No boil overs. In quarts and liters thats...........ah fuck it. You figure it out!

Yeah, I fucked up, sorry about the typo.

I'm sure there are pleny of guys who are careful as hell with all kinds of tricks to keep from boiling over. I think that's a pain in the ass. What I'm really getting at is that the bigger the boil pot, the better, especially when used with a powerful propane burner. I'd much rather crank the burner on high, with a big ass brew pot, and not worry about a boil over,so I don't wait all day for the wort to come to a boil. That's all I'm really getting at here.

Bug - I read the description foam control, but only saw stuff referring to the fermenter, never to the boil pot. Am I missing something?
