Hi... Have just signed up having taken the jump from extract to BIAB.
Brew 2 was a hefe with a 90 minute boil which literally caused it to rain beer in my kitchen. Eventual plan is to brew in the cellar and vent everything out the coal chute, but I don't have the funds to run plumbing and drainage just yet.
Was thinking about just fixing a panel over the window on brewdog (plywood/OSB etc.) And cutting a hole for an extractor fan...
Anyone with experience of this who can tell me whether a) it will be effective enough not having a hood over the actual boiler and b) any recommendation of a cheap extractor... Preferably one that can just be plugged into the mains.
Option 2 is boil outside... Just don't see how I can move the batch without burning myself, contaminating the batch or both.
