Last brew day went great, right up to the point I was pumping boiled wort into the CFC to chill and recirculate. Whole leaf's got stuck in the quick disconnect. Caused me major grief and ended up quite short on final volume. Normally I use a hop spider but the boil volume was small on this beer and wouldn't reach deep enough into the keggle for the 7 hop additions. Lowering the hop spider seemed the best option, but second thoughts of overheating the plastic due to being deeper in the keggle come to mind. So what's the other options? SS Scrubby? Mesh? Hop Stopper? How does the scrubby compare to the mesh tube?
