I have a 5 gallon mash tun/HLT combo. I recently switched out the stainless steel coil that came with the mash tun for a false bottom, as I'd read that it's a more efficient method for lautering when fly sparging. Since I did that, I've had a really hard time getting to the clear wort during recirculation. There's a lot of particulate matter, and although it goes down with subsequent rounds of recirculation, it never really goes away. It doesn't look like grain husk, so I'm not worried about getting tannins in my beer, but has anyone else had this problem when switching to a false bottom? Do I need to change the settings on the grain mill at my brew shop?
