Hot Fill Bags - Pack of 10

    Description

    These hot fill bladders are a great way to cut time out of your brew day using the "no chill" or "hot packing" method of cooling wort. When your boil is over, simply fill them up and wait for the wort to chill overnight or throw it in the fridge. This eliminates the traditional 30-60 minutes of chill time common in most brew days.  Use the wort immediately after it has cooled down, or store refrigerated for short periods of time.

    When chilled and ready to go, most brewers transfer the wort out of the bag and into their favorite fermenter. However it is possible to ferment directly in the bag with the use of a #7 stopper and airlock.

    Hot packing and the storage of wort at room temperature has been done in Australia as a common practice for decades.  Because of the temperature of wort entering the bag, any bacteria are killed. However there does exist a small chance of Botulism contamination for wort that is hot packed and stored.  Botulism spores can survive a boil and are only killed through high temperature pasteurization. We always recommend using the wort as quickly as possible once it has cooled.  

    Hot fillable means they can be filled with any liquid up to 212°F. 

    The triple layer construction makes these bags puncture resistant, chemical resistant, and gives the bag superior oxygen barrier properties. The first layer is 50-micron polyethylene, the second is 45-micron polyethylene, and the third is 15-micron nylon.

    5.2 gal / 20L capacity.

        Best thing ever for no-chill!

        I can't believe that nobody has written a review for Hot Fill Bags yet. These things are great! You have to use your head though unless you want to get burned. I have fitted a used hot-fill cap with a cam-lock connector and I put the bags in a plastic tub before filling them so I can move them safely even if they are pretty plump. I connect a silicon hose from my kettle ball valve to the back and slowly fill it up leaving my trub cone un-disturbed. I also wear insulated gloves when I swap the cam-lock cap for the other cap. The pasturized wort keeps for weeks. The cap with the camlock and a sanitized hose goes back on to help get it into the fermentor without spilling.

        Are these reusable?

        They are supposed to be. But honestly I’ve never tried. They’re so inexpensive I didn’t feel it was worth the trouble to clean and sanitize them.

        MoreBeer!

        If you didn't handle them roughly rinsed them out well and maybe sanitized them I don't see any reason why you couldn't successfully hot- fill them again but they are so inexpensive it isn't worth the trouble. I would say the same thing about condoms.

        Is the stated volume (5.2 gallons) the sum of all 10 bags (i.e. half-gallon per bag) or is the stated volume 5.2 gallons PER BAG?

        MoreBeer!

        That is per each bag. They get to be really heavy and a little hard to handle so you may not want to fill them to the absolute max capacity.

        MoreBeer!

        Each bag is 5 gallons.
