So I was gifted a Blichmann hop rocket for my birthday and a shirron plate chiller!! I have no idea how to use it!! Well I understand the concept but I am trying to answer some questions before I ruin a batch of beer with it.
a. Will I need a pump or will gravity work?
b. I have never filtered my beer. Will the hop rocket or plate chiller clog if I dont? If it will clog can you recommend a good way of filtering?
My current setup is a cooler mash tun and a 15 gal. brew kettle and an immersion chiller.
I did some research and found that some use gravity but I couldnt tell if they were filtering or not. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
Cheers
