Hi all - I have just returned to AG brewing after a 5 year hiatus. I bought a new pot along with a some new mash tun hardware and false bottom (using a 10g Rubbermaid cooler). I was using the SS braid which worked well for my 40 or so batches I did numerous years back. I bought a Titan FB from NB that fits into the bottom of the cooler and thought this would be a good upgrade. I connected with the thick hi-temp hose. I do batch sparging and went to do my first running and....nothing. I stirred, etc but only a very light flow came out and not much grain. I had to take all the grain out and use a strainer to get my first running. Inspected the FB and didn't really see anything obvious that would cause the issue. Did my batch sparge w/3 gallons and second runnings worked perfectly. After my final 3g sparge, that one got stuck again and had to repeat my emptying of the grains and straining. What a mess but everything worked out. I am unsure as to why this might be happening. I am not sure if it is a vacuum issue or grain clogging something. This was a basic Pale Ale so no Wheat or Rye and I used a 1.3 ratio. Not sure if I should just go back to the braided SS hose as I never really had problems with that. Thanks for any help or recommendations!
