I have always used the large hop sack from Craft Brewer, so cannot comment on how it affects the release of bitterness/flavor/aroma from the pellets, sure some out there has probably done both and can comment

I like Kaiser Soze bought two of them as I was told by the honest retailer that they are not built for endless use, (his words were, you get what you pay for) in fact he tried to sell me one of the bigger pumps but I didn't have a spot big enough on my system to fit it into without running hoses...

Hi Zarniwoop Like a lot of people, I have had a blockage in my plate chiller so know the importance of keeping the hop material out of the chiller. Its a bitch to clean out when i happens, not to mention having to pull the system apart mid brew really mucks up the brew day. I use hop pellets...

To be honest Batz, i haven't looked at the bottle thread yet, must do that now before I take the bottle back to get the valve fitted and gassed up.

Thanks Batz, let me know, Im on the north side of Brisbane, happy to pay
