I do BIAB that way, but I currently only do 2.5 gallon batches. I have a 7.5 gallon pot that I mash in, and a 3 gallon pot that I use for a mashout/sparge step. Consistently getting 83% mash efficiency, so it's working well for me.

CR Water Question

Curious if anyone that uses the Cedar Rapids water does anything to treat it before brewing, or do you use bottled water? I haven't gotten a water report from the city yet, but know they add a fair amount of chlorine. Looking for ways to make better beer, and water seems like a great place to start....
