I can't think of a reason either
There's no need for a whirlpool KB...with the filter in place getting a trub cone post boil really isn't necessary.Killer Brew said:On another note and do people think it is possible to do a proper whirlpool on the GF or is it a waste of time given the filter positioning? Am wondering if I was to modify the mash recirc arm to attach a piece of copper tubing curved to the base of the GF and then run the pump if I could get a good whirlpool going or if the flow rate isn't strong enough?
I tried a whirlpool on my last brew, knocked the bloody filter off! Won't try it again...Killer Brew said:On another note and do people think it is possible to do a proper whirlpool on the GF or is it a waste of time given the filter positioning?

I whirlpool mine, never had a problem or filters coming off. Mind you, I don't stick the mash paddle all the way down and it still does a fine job of a whirlpool.A.B. said:I tried a whirlpool on my last brew, knocked the bloody filter off! Won't try it again...
I agree, the only system I have ever used when I have whirlpooled with a mash paddle and got nice trub cone.wambesi said:I whirlpool mine, never had a problem or filters coming off. Mind you, I don't stick the mash paddle all the way down and it still does a fine job of a whirlpool.
