Hey all.
Anyone have a general rule of thumb re: how much hops will clog your spigot? I've got a 10 gallon Boilermaker, and I've also built hop sock. I typically don't use it (assuming I get better utilization) unless I've got a recipe that seems like it uses a lot of hops. Did an IPA last night with 1 oz additions at 60, 25, 15, 10, 2 and 0 min. Whirlpooled and still had a clog at the spigot. Had my hand in the hop sock too, but didn't use it.
Didn't think 6 ounces of hops was THAT much. Maybe it had more to do with the late additions.
Thoughts/suggestions appreciated.
