I love my hydra, too. My only drawback thus far is that I would love to buy one of these filters to sit on the side of my kettle for adding pellet hops, which would work initially, but when you add the chiller for the last 15 minutes of the boil, the filter would have to get yanked. Which defeats the purpose of late boil hop additions.
Anyone overcome this problem for us immersion chiller users? I still use hop bags for pellets, but find myself questioning their efficiency in delivering hoppy goodness. Because of that, I mostly use leaf hops, but they sure do take up a lot of space in my freezer (when you buy them by the pound).
