I "upgraded" to a BrewHardware.com false bottom in my 10 gal Igloo MLT. Today was my third brew day with it, and I'm getting tons of grain into the kettle; at least, I would if I didn't pass it through a mesh strainer first. This was today after my first runnings:
What gives? I'm grinding my barley malt at 0.033" and wheat at 0.025". This is an APA with 11 lb of a couple different barley malts and 0.5 lb wheat malt. I'd love to keep using the false bottom, because my efficiency is up 3-4%, but if this is the tradeoff, I'm going back to the bazooka screen.
