Some basic useful tips I've come across:
• Measure and prepare the night before.
• Clean while you're waiting around. This saves a lot of time.
• Types of boil
Does your hydrometer reading seem way off? Check the temperature of the wort you're measuring. Quite often when you measure the pre-boil gravity the wort temperature is much higher than what the hydrometer is calibrated for. You can adjust the reading using an online calculator - Hydrometer Calculator
• BIAB bags are not just for using this brewing style. You can use a bag in regular mash to help avoid stuck sparges.
• Always wrap the top of your immersion chiller with a towel. Just in case it leaks.
