Got a False bottom to replace the Screen filter I had for my Mashtun for Xmas. Installed it and tried to use for first time today, and I must have had or did something wrong. It is a domed one and had it in with the curve so the room was under it. Figured the point from reading was grain would stay on top of it and wort goes through the little hole and then up through the piece / hose and out Spigot.
Went to Vorlauf and was coming out of the spigot. Had to empty the Mash into a pot to see what was happening, and found that the grains had went through and the hose from the False bottom to the Spigot was clogged with grains, so wort was not coming through, so took it out and put screen back in to complete brew day. But now to figure out what was wrong or if I had it installed wrong that made it clog with Grains, as I really want to use this over the screen.
Thanks for any information.
