Jaybird's Stainless False Bottoms

[Nikobrew]

Kickass Jay! Nice work!

Very cool and original design.

Also congratulations on getting the web store up and running. Now I know where to go to look at the latest Jaybird creations.

I saw this in person today at jays store... I want one... soon...

In fact, you can go ahead and start building me one jay...

I'll bring my keggle down next week so you can measure it...

It'll be your first order of 2011...

Can I get credit on that SS compression fitting?.. I haven't used or installed it yet... and now I will not be needing it...

I stopped at Keller Supply on the way home to buy my tubing... Since I priced out my custom flat CFC two weeks ago, copper prices have skyrocketed.. and it's now very expensive to build, so I am rethinking the whole plate chiller approach... a 20' stick of 3/4" copper type 'M' was over 40 dollars at my wholesaler... 1/2" was 23 dollars for 20 feet... Which means that by the time I buy all the fittings, I'm looking at well over $200.... Basically, the project has doubled in price all of a sudden...

Have you got pictures of this thing in a pot? I'd love to see what it looks like in place!

A pic would be great!! Pellet hops?? The largest/only west coast pellet hop producer is 1/4 mile from my house. ( www.indiehops.com ). I like whole hops but man they are convenient!!

 

[Dave258]

Unbelievable! Ordered my false bottom on thursday with lots of help from Jay. It was delivered to my house today. Can't beat that! And it is great quality!
Thanks Jay!

Any chance we can get a picture of the underside of you new hop stopper? Also what part is copper and have you come up with a solution that will replace it with stainless yet?

I'll see what I can do here in a few days.
The copper part is a "T" that is what I connect the diptube to. No solutions as of yet...

 

[bendavanza]

It would be great to see a video of how the new hop stopper works. Surely you know someone with a video camera / iphone that could shoot a few clips during whirlpool and drain? If I lived closer, I'd volunteer.

[bighand]

Just brewed this afternoon with the new false bottom. I recirculated for the entire mash with no problems. Thanks for the great products Jaybird!

 

[lsand]

I thought I would post a picture of my new Jaybird FB. Thanks for the fine product Jay!

 

[Jaybird]

I guess I never posted the pics of mine here:

It's under there somewhere, 34 lb grainbill on the first run, I was pretty worried with all the darker roasted barley in there, but I recirc'd for an hour at a steady flow rate. This false bottom is a performance powerhouse.

 

[slakwhere]

just to add my $0.02, i got mine recently and just finished the install. i ordered the dip tube uncut so i could adjust it to my MLT and it was quick work with the hacksaw. it installs quickly and is built STOUT!

can't stress how awesome J is to work with, how great his product is and how much i'm looking forward to brewing with this thing!!!

i put my handle under my dip tube so there's less chance of knocking into it with the mash paddle...

Hi klyph, I was searching for builds using Jaybirds false bottom and found your post #414. Curious how your are draining your MLT since the pic doesn't show a diptube.

Thanks!
