Looks good, do you get a decent flow rate, even with what looks like a fair wack of hops.
I think ill go the all stainless version, hopefully some in stock.

I have a small fish and chip fryer hanging on the edge of my kettle when using a large amount of flowers. At flame out I can lift the basket out and squeeze all the remaining wort into the kettle. Flowers absorb and hold too much wort after boiling.

Never had issues with flow rate (gravity).

And that is only 60g of home grown chinook flowers + 25g of pellets. :icon_drunk:

I use a hop screen and have never had flow issues. Also tip my kettle at the end to get ALL the wort out. Great bit of kit IMHO.
