Brew Bag?
Howdy, all. Looking at making 15 gals of super sweet corn with malt barley mash with frozen type corn. I am using a 30-gal barrel. I was looking at using an XL brew bag. I guess the concern I have when using a bag with all the chopped-up corn and barely will it ALL ferment ok? To me, it seems the middle part of the mash in the bag won't ferment right. I guess I can go with or without the bag> Thoughts? Thanks.

That will be pretty heavy to try and squeeze all at once. Rack it through the bag after ferment to save your back.

Re: Brew Bag?
Shouldn’t be an issue as long as you get good conversion prior to ferment. I use 20 gallon fermenters and do 16 gallon mash in a BIAB and ferment on grain using Yellow Label Yeast.
Not sure about frozen corn though because corn meal is my go to. How are you going to grind that?
