So I would love a little help if anyone on a Stout system has any pointers. We are really trying to iron down processes to increase our yield. I'm not looking for the moon but I think we should be doing better than this.
We've always had a hard time getting a tight cone. We made some modifications by adding a 3" high curved hop dam and it helps but not great. We purchased a standpipe from blichmann and it helps but not great.
Here's our process.
Whirlpool for 10 minutes at 38hz. This is not through the HX.
Let settle for 30-45 minutes
Dump tub until it runs clear and then knock out.
I'm a few inches above the heating elements when I am finished. Granted the pic is a big hoppy beer but I'm losing 1/3 of my yield.
If anyone has had a lightbulb moment on this system I'd love to hear some ideas.
Thanks all!!!
