Is it ok to dump hot wort into kettle after mashing?

Hi, I have one propane fired keggle and I use it to heat my strike and sparge water as well as boil the wort in after mashing. I gravity feed my mash into two buckets then I have been using an overly complicated pumping method where I use an auto siphon to pump the wort from the bucket into an electric pump below then pump it up into the boil kettle. This is a pain because I have a really hard time getting the pump to prime and I'd rather just eliminate the pump and dump the buckets of wort into the kettle and start cooking. I've been pumping because I was worried about HSA but is this actually a problem do you think?

 

I don't really know what HSA is, however; I lauter into buckets and dump into my kettle and I don't have any personal complaints about my beer.

 

Hot-side aeration is one of those things that some homebrewers latched onto a few years ago, but it seems to have been debunked. It can be an issue with full-scale brewers, but for the homebrewer, it's not much of a risk. It's been kicked around on some threads here.

Go ahead and pour from your buckets.

 

Yea, I wouldn't worry about HSA.
Pour from your buckets, or use a gallon pitcher to transfer wort or sparge water.

Sounds to me like you are over complicating your process.

Cheers!

 

Thanks for the replies , no more pumping for me for awhile
