Hi all,
Does anyone do no-chill BIAB? Currently I do 10L batches and I cool it by transferring to a pot sitting in an ice bath in my sink. It works well but the ice bags cost $8 (my freezer isn't big enough to make ice blocks) and it's another step/cost I'd like to remove if possible. I've been reading about no-chill and wanted some feedback. I'm thinking to leave the wort in the kettle overnight, then at room temp transfer to FV, aerate and pitch yeast. Good/bad idea?
Cheers
