I have a keggle with a downspout that I use as my boil kettle. When I am done brewing and chilling through the spout, I always notice a TON of break material that ends up in my carboy (not good for my plate chiller).
Theres only a tiny amount of space between the downspot and the bottom of the keggle, i'd say 1/2cm or so. I built a hop spider which helps to get rid of a lot of hop material in my wort, but still, there's a lot of other junk that settles out.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to reduce the amount of break that ends up in my final product? I was thinking I could get a false bottom and cut a hole in it that would fit just the head of the downspout through it but if theres an easier way, i wanna hear it!
