I want to try this gadget with my Blichmann 20 gallon. I don't freak out so much about what goes into the fermenter, however I hate clogged valves and funnel screens. This is about the only issue on brew day that I haven't smoothed out. I have tried a stainless steel scrubby around the neck of the dip tube with the whirlpool method and it still clogs on the last few gallons. I am starting to use hop bags as well. Maybe hop bags and this hop blocker and a settled whirlpool combined with the scrubby will beat the problem. I would love to eliminated spraying Star-san on my arms and reaching in.
Ya think???
