Sadly that's not it. When I open it up I get a glass of 80% foam.

Thank you! I sadly already bought a tap that does not have flow control, but clearly regretting that now ;P My current solution is simply open the tap only a small amount. Next brew I will try to put a piece of airline hose in my floating downtube to make the inner diameter smaller. Probably...

As newbie myself I'll throw in that in researching this stuff a very popular sentiment is that the cold side is way more important than the hot side. I am mostly investing in the cold side and just doing my boils on the stove. Next brew is a BIAB and will do a dunk sparge in a smaller pot, both...

Can you just use a brand new aquarium siphon and clean it really well? They are just made of plastic with vinyl tubing. They are widely available at pet stores including big chain pet stores.
