I have found myself in this position too many times; after an hour or so of mashing I go to drain my wort and its non-stop cloudy or won't drain at all.
I have a 5 gal rubbermaid MLT with a ball valve, standard stuff.
I started off with a false bottom from Phils mashing equip but every time I used it it would get a huge plug of grain in it over and over.
I thought if I put a coiled plastic tube under it with a bunch of holes in it my cloging problem would be resolved but the wort ran cloudy after 1.5 gal, it was never going to clear up.
This is the third batch I've had f*cked up from this kind of problem, I need some serious help before I go back to drinking wild turkey and Jameson
What would you recommend for a rubbermaid MLT, I know lots of people use it.
Please help.
