Compared to the 29" x 29" mesh bag this one is a much better fit for my 8.5 gallon kettle. It looks quality made and I'm looking forward to trying brewing in a bag (BIAG).
Having the tie strings makes all the difference. I use whole hops for my dry hopping and having this huge bag to help with the volume is very helpful.
Cut a hole in the bottom and used in my ratchet press. Worked great!

Good reusable bag. Thanks
Worked just as I had hoped it would. Was able to drape it over the top of a 7 gallon fermentation bucket and tighten the drawstring so that I could add fruit for fermentation of wine.
I bought the BAG28 Mesh Bag and have done (19) BIAB 5 Gal batches with it. Just starting to get some holes, but considering how far this lasted, will buy this again. Looked at the Brew Bag for $30 but still think this one is a good deal for the price. Plus, I will just get a brand new mesh bag every 20 batches or so.
The mesh bag was a good fit for 5 gallon igloo cooler converted into a mash tun. Cleaned easy
I have not been a BIAB brewer, but as I have started to make traditional kvass, which is essentially a way to create a tasty very low alcohol drink using malt and leftover stale bread with sourdough cultures, I found this bag to be invaluable. Because a kvass made in the traditional way is "live", it will sour excessively and create bottle bombs unless kept in a cold refrigerator. Even there it continues to sour, and is best drunk within 2 weeks. So I have turned to 4 liter batches, brewing with 5 liters of water, it is much simpler to use a mesh bag to mash in a small stovetop pot, and sparge it three times to get the wort. Without considering liquid loss, I get 95% efficiency this way (remember kvass made this way will be about 1-1.5% alcohol). Anyway, the bag is strong and well made and actually larger than what I need but it works great
First biab try bag works perfect
This bag worked great for all the grains in the kit.
Got a tiny little hole after 7~8 batch, but I admit I've used it very roughly. Very light and it doesn't hold up to much water.
Exactly as advertised. Good quality. It fits perfectly in my 5gal pot and did a fine job retaining my whole leaf hops and peanut butter (peanut butter cup porter).
Fits my 10 gallon Igloo cooler. Been using it for 8 batches so far and it's holding up great.
Approx how many pounds of grain does it hold?
Will this 24" bag fit around the lip of a 8.5G Brewmaster Kettle or should I use the 29" option for BIAB?
The 24" fits perfectly on my 8.5G BM Kettle. I put it over one of the handles to get the best fit on the top lip so it doesn't slide off while brewing.
29"
mesh size?
This measures 24 in x 24 in.
