Aside from false bottoms, homebrewers can also use bazooka screens to filter the wort from the grain bed when transferring to another vessel. A bazooka screen works just like a false bottom, but the screen can at times become clogged with a lot of grains which may affect the flow of liquid that comes out of the ball valve/spigot. However, once you have drained the wort, any grains trapped on the surface of the bazooka screen can be easily removed by washing it with tap water.
Most lauter tuns come with their own bazooka screen or false bottom. However, if you want to customize your old brew kettle and turn it into a lauter tun, you can install a false bottom or a bazooka screen at the base. Here at Ontario Beer Kegs, we have a wide selection of false bottoms and bazooka screens. Our online store carries brands like Blichmann, Anvil, Grain Defender and Ss Brewtech. Our wide selection of bazooka screens, false bottoms, kits and assemblies will allow any home brewer to customize their lauter tuns depending on their needs and brewing requirements.
