I brew on a herms system and my mlt has a sabco false bottom.
I use one pump to add sparge water and another to pump wort
to the bk. No matter how I crush my malt small pieces get through
and block the ball valve controlling the wort to bk. Has anybody had success
using a grain bag or paint strainer in a recirculating herms system. The ball
valves are 1/2 in. During mashing it seems fine untill I slow it all down to fly sparge. I dont batch sparge but I will try it if all else fails.
