Looks like a 3mm hole in the steamer, managed to find my rule,
I currently use a 99p Iron mesh, the splatter type pan cover with the Tank manifold pushed through it the same as the plate method as my mash tun has a round bottom and that is fantastic only issue is need to swap it out every now and then as its Iron but hey 99p not a problem, did see a SSteel version but £15, I can use a new one every brew for that money. As I plan to use resurc RIMS system so I'll give it a bash and see how it goes.I'll know if its a go'er buy the 1st mash and xfer into another kettle if required during that mash.
It's just that I know there is another option other than the plastic plate and my Splatter mesh.
For what its worth I was in Morrisons and see that the shop shelf's in the beer and cookery department are devided by would be a great screen if it was SSteel maybe?
Please add your 1p, think out of the box I'm sure we can finds a perfect answer to saving pounds on a False bottom, and please dont tell me the plastic plate is the only great invention as my mesh I think is fantastic if not better
as it has more area avaliable if used in a Keg with a rounding bottom.
