So,
I have a brew setup I mostly like. 3V keggle system, electric, 240V, mostly 10G batches, etc.. I've dialed it in pretty well, but every time I brew a hoppier beer(more than 2-3oz of 60min hops), I run into issues with my plate chiller. It tends to clog up.
I'm not running QC hoses, just 1/2" silicon with barbs. They tend to pop off when things back up(bad).
I'm not sure whether I'm better off going CFC or a filter before the chiller. Thoughts? Pros/Cons?
The cost seems similar, though with the CFC I suppose I could deep clean and resell th plate chiller(though I probably won't, I know I think I'd use it then it would sit unused and add to my kids' inheritance).
