Ok so I have a Stout Tanks, I believe the 2.7gal version Hop Back, decided to use it for the first time last night and didn't go so well. I put 6oz of my home grown hops in there.... I put them in a mesh bag but after a min of pumping from my kettle for the cooling whirlpool it clogged up. Decided to take the bag out and that was a bad idea, hops everywhere and eventually clogging my pump. That Hop Back does not have a false bottom, what is the proper way of using these? I was filling from the top and outlet at the bottom, should I fill from bottom and outlet at the top?
