BIAB: Brew in a Bag – Easy All Grain Homebrew! – Gear, Resources & Reviews

Brew in a Bag, also known as BIAB is a bit of a misnomer.  Brewing in synonym for boiling.  We’re not really boiling in a bag.  BIAB deals with the mashing, lautering and sparging phase of all grain brewing.  What’s really going on is Mash in a Bag or MIAB.  Having said that, BIAB is the term that’s commonly used and we’ll stick with that.

What is BIAB and how is it different from traditional mashing?

In traditional all grain homebrewing a mash takes place in a mash vessel aptly called a mash tun.  During the mash enzymes convert complex carbohydrates into simple sugars that can be fermented by brewer’s yeast.  Homebrew mash tuns take many forms but a typical setup is a cooler combined with a false bottom or screen. After the mash is complete a sparge takes place to rinse residual sugars from the now spent grains.  This can take a couple of different forms in homebrewing either fly/continuous sparging or batch sparging.



in BIAB we simply substitute a bag filter for the false bottom and any required fittings and ball valves.  The cooler is typically replaced by your boil kettle.  Same chemistry behind the scenes and the same basic outcome – complex carbohydrates converted to simple sugars ready to be fermenter.  Just a change in equipment.

Step by Step Small Batch, All Grain Stove Top Brewing! + Limited Time Deal on 3 Gallon Fermonsters!

small batch homebrew

Updated: February 12, 2025

I periodically brew small (1-3) gallon all grain batches of beer on my stove top.  Some reasons I do that… 1.  The weather – it’s too cold, too hot or too something else, 2.  Time or 3.  I want to test something.  It’s a fun, simple, quick and economical way to brew all grain with minimal investment.


Limited Time DEAL (2/12/25 only) – 3 Gallon Fermonster for $23.99

3 Gallon Ported FerMonster Large Mouth Fermenter from MoreBeer

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

The Fermonster is a brand new fermenter designed specifically for fermentation. MoreBeer! gave product feedback for over 2 years of development and we think they nailed the design. The large lid allows for easy filling and makes hop or oak additions a breeze. The smooth sides are fantastic for sanitization – no ribs or texture to collect yeast or bacteria. The punted bottom allows sediment to collect to the sides so that you can siphon liquid from the center. Because they are made from vigin PET plastic, they’re nearly unbreakable and a lot safer than similar glass carboys. Also notice the conical top which reduces surface area if you plan to store beer or wine long term.

  • 4″ inner diameter wide mouth carboy – easy to clean!
  • Food grade PET plastic construction is nearly impermeable to oxygen penetration
  • No hard to clean dimples or ribs
  • Punted bottom
  • O-Ring and Lid with one hole is included (Fits #10 Stopper)
  • Additional O-Rings and Lids available
  • Weight: 1.5 lbs
  • Temperature Limit: 140° F
  • Height: 14.6 inches
  • Diameter: 9 inches
  • Completely taste and odor free
  • Perfect for Beer, Wine, Cider, Mead, Kombucha or any other fermented beverage!
