Perforated stainless screen is 18 gage stainless steel. 3/32" hole size at a 5/32" stagger. 11 1/2" in diameter. Designed to fit the contour of a Sanke Kegs, American or European, and works great when used in a flat bottom brew kettle. • 11 1/2 inches in Diameter will fit easily thru a 12” cutout. (Sanke Keg) • The dip tube is flared to help kit it from coming up thru the false bottom. • This design, even through it doesn’t fit tight against the sides of your kettle, is a cost effective way to all-grain brew. • If the dip tube is too close to the bottom, the flow can be restricted. Using a stainless steel hose clamp above the false bottom and around the dip tube will keep the dip tube up off the kettle (see detail). • A 3/8 Comp. X 1/2” Pipe thread fitting can be used to connect the dip tube to the side wall fitting installed in your kettle or converted keg.

Do you recommend a glass or solid lid for the brewpots? I'm fairly new to homebrewing, and need to purchase a pot, trying to decide between 20qt and 30qt (borrowed a turkey fryer pot for my first batch, don't want to scrub peanut oil off the pot any more). My usual batch size is 5 gallons for now, so I was thinking 30qt would allow ample room to boil. Also, is a spigot necessary, or simply recommended? . . .

is a false bottom anything more special than a walmart purchased food strainer? conversly I read in the John Palmer book about making a manifold out of copper tubing and assume it sits on the bottom of the mash tun with grist over top of it; what size should the holes be driled in that manifold to allow water flow but not grist flow; and which would be the cheapest/best method?

Hi folks,
I'm thinking about trying my first all grain brew after a couple of extract batches which were delicious! I want to make sure that I have all the proper equipment. Currently I have a 7.5 gal brewpot with the spigot. I have all the necessary fermenting equipment, but what else do I need? False bottom, bazooka screen, tubing? Can you set me up with the necessary items and advise on a simple . . .

I am looking at getting into all grain brewing and want to start with a stainless steel mash/lauter tun. I currently brew 5 gallon batches, but may want to increase to 10 gallon batches. If I purchase your 15 gallon brewpot with a brewmometer and spigot would this work for both 5 and 10 gallon batches?

I'm getting ready to purchase your delux kit, and i also plan on getting a brew pot. I would like to also use this pot for cooking soups and such (would this be advised against? i make a wicked chicken corn soup), so i question whether it is worth putting a through-wall thermometer on the pot. Also, will the thermometer shaft sit far into the pot, making it difficult to clean or insert a false bottom? . . .

I want to order your false bottom for a boiling keg. Is the screen fine enough to hold back trub, or just hops? Should I buy a finer screen to further filter the wort before sending it to my carboy?

I recently purchased a stainless false bottom (sku: E20) and installed it in my boiling pot. I thought this was a good way to filter out my hops, but a bunch of hops (leaf) got through and clogged up my chiller. What can I do to fix this problem,? Or does the false bottom just not work for filtering out hops? What’s your preferred method of filtering out Hops?

If money were not an issue, what would your recommendation be for a burner for 10 gallon batches? Similarly (pretending that money weren't an issue) what would you recommendation be for a brewpot for 10 gallon batches (please pick your preferred pot, spigot, etc.). Thank you.

Hi; I am trying to decide between your 7.5 gal and 9 gal brewpot. I am new to brewing, and have started with extract brews. I will probably move on to an all grain brew at some point. Which pot would be better for me? I will be brewing on your standard kitchen gas stove. Any tips or equipment recommendations welcome.

I am a novice and have only brewed 3 5 gal. batches. My instructions say to boil 2 to 2.5 gallons of wort. Am I correct in reading that you suggest to boil the entire 5 gallons?

I read elsewhere online that the wort can be brewed in a smaller pot, i.e. 5-quart, and then mixed with cool water in the fermenter to lower the temperature. Does this work, and if so, are there any undesireable side-effects?

Can I use my converted keg as a mash/lauter tun with the stainless steel false bottom kit and still apply heat to the keg during the mash (if needed)? I have read that you can't heat grist during the mash with a stainless steel false bottom.
