Well, i had a go......
Took on board as much advice from here as i could remember whilst out in my garage.
Evening went fairly well, with no 'major' cock-ups. Fairly pleased with that as am used to Murphy's Law. Anyway, forgot to not squeeze the bag but also ended up with less wort (but at a higher gravity than planned). These are easy to fix for next time!
Have struggled with getting yeast started whilst Fermenting at 12°c, see other post, but hopefully got that sorted now (fingers crossed!), and since next brew will be an ale, i should be alright there.
Will update in a month or two when hopefully I'll be able to enjoy supping my first Biab.
