First hops added, this brew I decided to give boiling hops in a bag ago.

Mash at 67°C for 90 minutes
Boil for 60 min. Add a pinch of gypsum at the beginning..

Used my new boiler, which is slighty smaller than my normal one. Heats up quicker.
20lts of wort collected.

Yeast:
Ringwood Strain.
Ferment at 20°C

How did you find using a bag when adding the hops? I was thinking of doing the same as it can be quite hard to filter out the hops when transferring to a FV (I'm a BIAB er).
I was wondering if it might affect the way the hops imaprt their loveliness :wha:
Let us know how it tastes!
