Wondering about using a SS cane with a Bazooka Screen slipped over it to siphon my cooled wort to the fermentor. I use pellet hops and I know that these clog Bazooka Screens. But since I will be able to stir the cane and screen around when it get clogged, do you think this movement will alleviate clogging issues?

I've seen a few recommendations for this technique but haven't heard about whether this can work with pellet hops.

Thanks,
Matt
 
I have had some success with wrapping cheesecloth around the racking cane tip and securing it with a rubber band. It slows the siphon down considerably, but it works. Not sure what a bazooka screen is, but it sounds like it will do the same thing.
