Passivating Stainless Steel Beer Brewing Equipment to Prevent Corrosion

Despite its reputation as the perfect metal for beer brewing, stainless steel can actually corrode or rust.   Learn how and why stainless steel can corrode as well as how you can passivate your stainless steel beer brewing equipment to protect it.

Please read Brad Smith's blog on BeerSmith Home Brewing on how to properly prepare and take care of your home brewing kettles.

  • Blichmann HopBlocker

    Blichmann HopBlocker

    Traditional screen filters draw from the bottom of the kettle immediately sucking all pellet hops and fine break material into the screen, where they plug. In Blichmann Engineering's HopBlocker, preferential flow leaves settled fine break material (hops and trub) undisturbed at the bottom of the kettle while draining the majority of the wort through a coarse filter from the top down. When the wort level is just a couple of inches from the bottom of the kettle, the fine filter element is then exposed by lifting the shield, and the remainder of the wort is filtered. It's an intuitive design that allows the fine filter to work only on a small portion of the wort, not all of it. The HopBlocker will filter up to 95% of the break material and hops from your wort without plugging. While it is designed specifically to complement Blichmann Engineering's BoilerMaker brew kettles, the HopBlockercan be installed in any manufacturer's kettle or keg.
    NOTE: The HopBlocker is designed for use with pellet hops only. Whole/loose hops will plug the unit. While using whole hops, or a mix of whole and pellet hops, you must bag your whole hops in a large muslin grain bag. This will not affect the utilization rate and will result in significantly less wort loss.
    CA$76.99
     
  • Blichmann HopRocket
