A place where folks can post a picture whether they've used a whirlpool, drill or just good old fashioned wrist action and no one will judge you.

With the plate chiller I'm probably going to be using hop bags. Will have a break cone instead. Was looking forward to whirlpooling and all. :(

Watch how this German guy does it. The equipment build is something else but if you move to 5 minutes you will see him manually whirlpool and then he fits a blocker to stop the whirlpooled crap from passing through the pipe.

Getting the hang of this now and 20 min rest after I hit pitch temp with whirlpool off before I empty really helps

This is the first proper trub cone I've gotten. I whirlpool with a drill, remove the chiller and leave for about 20 mins. It shows the ss brewtech trub stopper actually works as well. I do get marginal trub into the fermentor though.

Thats the one!
A bit of trub is grand and will help fermentation.
I modded the "deck drain" with an inch of copper pipe stuck in it now just to avoid picking up the real heavy stuff that was drifting in as can been seen on those earlier pics, I loose 3-4 litres but just factor it in at the start.
The 20 min rest on a whirlpool really helps let the heavy crud fall out.
I have a brew off coming up with Fishjam on Friday which I'm sure we will document to the forum on the day and will really test it as the amount of hops we are about to burn is scaring the shit out of me ;D ;D

Quote from: armedcor on October 22, 2016, 02:21:58 AMI wonder how much residual acid would be imparted in to that beer? I always get really bad heart burn from very heavily hopped IPAs & put it down to higher levels of acidic chemicals (alpha acids etc) that are in the beer.

You sure it's acids, you could be allergic

1st nominal addition at 4 mins and the rest whirlpooled at 80

It could be a complete balls up but sure hey nothing ventured! Smells incredible
