I recently purchased a RIMS-HERMS system from a friend and I am having difficulty with recirculating in my mash tun. I am continually getting large airpockets in the line and I have to contantly turn the pumps on and off in order to try and get a good consistant recirc going. The problem seems to ease up a bit once the grain bed is set.
My friend thinks that if I cut a few slots in the dip tube it would allow the water to cycle through better and that it may be too close to the bottom of the keggle and easily clogged with fine particles.
any help would be greatly appreciated. This seems to be the only issue with the system. I am hitting my target effeciencies and target gravities just fine. Beer is coming out great.
Thanks again.
