You mentioned something about high quanitities of adjuncts and unsuccessful. I suppose mashing nothing but flaked oats for an 3 gallon experimental batch might be out of the question? I was going to add DME later in the recipe but other than that, these oats were going to be the only surgars.

The thing is, BIAB isn't a technique that hits the friendliest ground for enzymes. Its works, it works well and there is no problem with conversion or fermentability when doing BIAB....
BUT - if you are playing at the edges of what would work in a traditional mash, and your recipe looks like its getting there, then you are playing to the method's potential weaknesses.
It might still work, it probably will... but where with a "normal" mashing technique I would look at your recipe and say that "you'll probably get away with it" - with BIAB I might be a little less confident.
Like I said - it'll probably work just fine, but you are potentially pushing the limits
