Suitable for Distilling & Botanical Maceration
BIAB bags are made from food-grade nylon and are generally considered suitable for use with high-ethanol solutions used in distilling and botanical maceration.
- Ethanol compatibility: Nylon has good resistance to ethanol, including high-proof spirits (e.g. 95–96% ABV). It is commonly used in filtration bags and filter mesh for beverage and industrial applications.
- Temperature: Nylon is suitable for ambient-temperature maceration. It is less resistant to prolonged exposure to very hot alkaline or acidic solutions, but that is typically not relevant for ethanol maceration.
- Food grade: The key consideration is that the bags are manufactured from food-grade nylon and are free from coatings, dyes, or treatments that could leach into the spirit.
- Industry use: Many distilleries use food-grade nylon mesh bags for containing botanicals during gin production and other spirit macerations.
Note: Please remove the label from the bag before use, as the printing on the label is not as stable.
