12" Diameter Stainless Steel Domed False Bottom. Convert a brew pot or cooler into a mash tun. Fits any of our 9, 15, and 19 gallon brew pots. Also fits in 10 gallon Rubbermaid coolers (very tightly). Constructed from 304 stainless steel these false bottoms will not float. Dome height is 1/2". Comes with 3/8" barbed 90° stainless steel elbow hose fitting in the center to draw the wort from beneath the dome.

What size false bottom? A Domed False Bottom seats differently then a straight walled one. The outside dome sits on the bottom and acts as the seal to stop grains and hop material from getting through. As long as your inner diameter is longer then the length of the false bottom (distance across the inside) it will work. False Bottom's are a popular filtering system for keggles, coolers, and pots.

Problem With Adapter Kit

It's been mentioned before, I just want to re-iterate it. It comes with a 3/8 barbed elbow, and the optional adapter kit is all 1/2. If you order the adapter kit like I did, you also need to go into the Stainless Steel Hardware section and order a 1/2 close nipple, a Street elbow, and an FPT to Barbed adapter. Another $12. Suddenly not so great a deal. But when It costs over $60 after you order the parts for the workaround, this thing better work flawlessly. Heck, the screen isn't even a problem. It looks like It'll work fine. But I wouldn't know, because I can't hook it up as it was shipped to me, also missing a stainless hose clamp.

Cant Get Better Then This

Awsome false bottom worked great even near the end with a compacted grain bed in my 10gallon rubbermaid cooler.

Great Quality To Price Ratio

This false bottom does it's job, and does it well. You'd have to spend a lot more to get something much better. No stuck mashes, good flow and always creates a nice filtering grain bed quickly. Assembly can get in the way of stirring a bit.

Excellent

I am using this in my 11.7G Mash King MLT and it is working like a charm. Quickly gives clean Vorlauf and bumped my efficiency.This is better than the Mash King False Bottom, and its 1/3 of the price. Wow!

I'M Pretty Sure It Worked

Between this an a new mill I got an extra 10% efficiency, so, there's that.

Best Way To Filter Your Mash

i just love the way this false bottom work in my sanke keg. i did replaced the 90 degree fitting with a street elbow. it help getting the flow just right with a brew pump. I would also recommend using a SS coupler to lower the point where the liquid get sucked up inside the elbow fitting. I would recommend this false bottom to anyone who is planning to do a HERMS setup. Thanks again.

Great False Bottom

This fits perfectly in 58L kegs. Gonna be nice to use. Only reason I didn't give it a 5 (should be 4.5) is because there was no dip tube on it or anything to get all the liquid from underneath it. Other than that, great product.

Essential For The Keggle

It's a hell of an ugrade from a bazooka screen. Mine has worked great on my last two 10G batches. You just have to be mindful of the tube when doughing in, as I have heard the some people have dislodged it before. So far so good.

Must Have

I use one of these in the bottom of my 10gallon igloo, and it works & fits perfectly. It is also a good deal less expensive than most others that I have found on the internet.

Fits My Keggle Perfectly

I have a 50L keggle and it fits over the sunken bottom perfectly. I've used this false bottom for 5-6 batches and have no complaints, other than I wish the the elbow had a 1/2 barb. Flow is still fast and efficiency is great with the false bottom. Recommend it to anybody looking for a straightforward and easy-to-clean addition to their mash tun.
