Hey folks.
I just put together a new tun and am currently in the process of christening it. I went to run off the mash and the grain must've gotten underneath the false bottom when I stirred it in. I had to pour my mash (grain and all) into a pillow case and sparge the same way. I threw my back out and I'm a sticky mess. What was supposed to be a nice relaxing brew day has turned into a major headache. Anyone ever have similar issues with a false bottom in a tun? If so, any advice? I'd hate to have to spend more money if I don't need to, but I never had issues when using a bazooka filter. HELP! Thanks.
