I'm running a home brewing workshop at this festival on the weekend. There is some interesting stuff going on there (and my workshop). I have 2 hours to create the wort, so I am going for a no-sparge technique and hoping for saccharification in 40 minutes! boil for an hour, no time to chill, so back to Bristol with 20L of hot wort in the back of the car!. Have attached my workshop brief in case any of you do similar.
Hoping for good weather!

I like to keep a bottle of stimulant handy in case I see a snake, which I also keep handy.
Re: Small Is... Festival
Sounds great, good luck.
I started AG with BIAB and still use it occasionally. It's simple for non-brewers to understand if they've ever used a tea bag. No need for an insulated mash tun, false bottom/filter and no stuck mashes. Just need a big net curtain to pad around the inside of the boiler and some rope to secure it around the boiler rim.

Bit like the Dave Line method, nothing wrong with it :) It's very popular in Australia I understand.

If you want my counterflow you could chill 20L to pitching temp in about ten minutes.
Long live SHA(T)!

Thanks Mike, that's kind. I have decided to try a plate chiller for the first time. We'll see if \ how it works...
