Edit -  As I said, I haven't rested below 160F, but judging by Marshall's results with the 120F stand I'd feel confident doing that (and plan to do it on my next APA).

Does anyone have a reference to this article/post? Can't seem to find it immediately..
It was an Experimental Brewing IGOR experiment:

Good catch. I had the wrong source.

Thanks. Seem to have missed that. Hm, casually reading this does not make me overly enthusiastic. Maybe it's sufficient to cool the wort enough (say 80C) so that the Braumeister does not block the working of the pump.

Here's an experiment we did at EB....https://www.experimentalbrew.com/experiments/writeups/writeup-hop-whirlpool-does-steeping-lower-temperature-improve-final-hop
Life begins at 60.....1.060, that is!

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is not dry hopped. I had to point that out.

IIRC, it's not whirlpool hopped, either, is it?  Just a good old fashioned hop schedule?

Yes, thanks, in the meanwhile I got the reference. What I read is "Tasters seemed to fall fairly evenly on either side of the divide." So maybe I should just toss a coin to choose between 120F and 170F ;)

We find that on many experiments.  It's why I like the concept of multiple brewers and tasting sessions.

That or the triangle test is flawed.
