I'm not sure what you mean. Are you asking if you should change the bittering hops, the late hops or dry hops?

First Wort Hops - you put them in the boiler first, then run the wort in from the sparger.

How well does this work with BIAB? I guess you just throw the hops in after pulling the bag but will it have the same effect?

I use a no-chill cube but don't adjust my hop timings. I think these are only needed if you leave the hops in the wort as it cools.

First wort hops work....I don't know why and I don't think it's been explained why you retain the characteristics and aroma of the hop without it completely boiling off.
works great with galena.
