For a while now i have been doing BIAB with a 43L urn, and have had a hop bazooka in the urn as a hop screen. It currently runs across the centre of the kettle at the bottom:
Now with hop amounts in the 50-80g range it is more than happy with its job. But as i keep indulging my lupulin addiction and im starting to put 150g of hops into the boil it gets overwhelmed and starts to pass some trub. Whirlpooling doesnt help much as it merely makes the trub conveniently settle ontop of the screen.
So im starting to think about replicating the old Bilchmann Hop screen setup like this:
Planning on getting another bazooka and a T-piece and simply shaping to fit around the outside.
But before i do that i thought i would ask whether anyone has any better ideas for a side feed filtered pickup?
