Hey guys I been battling this battle for along time now. I get to much break material and trub into my fermenters. I have an angle pipe on my kettle which helps but I still get alot of junk. I use the Jamil's chiller with a pump which I love. The kettle is set to leave one gallon of wort behind on purpose to help leave as much junk as possible. I have tried several times to do a manual whirlpool after chilling but I never get a cone, always a flat layer of crud. I do not rack out of the kettle I open the ball valve and drain and this I want to keep. I have tried the S.S. Scrubby with no luck, it clogs. After chilling I let the kettle sit for 45 mins(Lid on) so the break material and trub will settle to the bottom. This works and I make good beer but I want to improve this setup. Anyone have any ideas which would my my system better?
