A couple of days ago I bought the new V3 grain basket. Finally no more pipework and top bottom plates and gaskets. But now I see a new thing that I have to buy and that is the new bottom filter. I missed that completly. Thanks guys!

Thanks, looks good! Would have been interesting to have seen a shot of the bottom of the GF after the filter plate was pulled out - did much trub get through? Wondering if the filter plate avoids element scorching (and potential cutout) ... or makes it worse because you can no longer rub a paddle over the element during the boil?

Well guys. Ive bought the new malt pipe and the new hop strainer. Tomorrow is brew day so after that, I'll let you know. On my 1st ever use of Geainfather, the hops blocking the filter was the biggest problem so, i hope thats resolved. Now, a question. This was a big expense and the upgrade was a big expense. What do i now do with all the redundant parts?

Do let us know how you get on! One top tip, the wort flows through the malt much faster so we now dial down the flow with the red ball valve on the side, so keep an eye on the level of wort on top of the mash for your first few brews to get a handle on where you need to throttle it to

Yes, since there is more filtration area you can runs the risk of sparking to fast. However, with the old basket we are getting something like 85%, I would take a drop from that for the ease 👊

Certainly looks interesting. I have a G30 and I always wonder what you are talking about when you mention the silicon bit that fits around a plate in the Malt tube. Mine fits around the Top Plate nowt around the Bottom one and the Top one goes onto the top of the grain 'COLD into a Malt Pipe which is HOT without much trouble at all. Bearing in mind that only the Top Plat is actually a circle and the Grain Basket is VERY unlikely to be perfectly round it slots in where it fits. I agree with other market Hop Filter plates. The clearance between the bottom of the Grain Basket and the added Plate can lead to a backing up of the return pipe flow. I have one but collapsed one of the legs so that there is more clerarance and it sems to work but the one you show looks good. I wonder if it would have sufficience clearance for use with the present Grain basket which of course has a nut at the bottom of the return/overflow pipe. Need to check some prices.

Malt pipe looks great. Would love to be able to buy one. 😂 And does the filter plate resist flipping over when whirlpooling with a drill and the gf whirlpool paddle, like I've had with one from the other systems? I know you said it's tried and tested, and will work brilliantly - but would be interested in real experience. Have you given it a good hard spin?

Having done my first brew with these two upgrades. A Pilsner with 100g Saaz T90s. I have to say I am delighted with the malt pipe. No fiddling to set up, doughing in so much better, less to clean, easier to empty, chances of a slow or stuck sparge very remote. Was hoping for a better mash efficiency which didn't really happen though. The filter plate, mainly positive. Clearest wort I've had from a Grainfather, fast run off, no whirpooling required. But, as has been mentioned in other comments, you have lost the ability to scrape the base during the boil, which in my case resulted in a lot of baked on gunk which was a pain to remove. Having normally just wiped with lemon juice and a paper towel. This took elbow grease and a steel scrubber, which I don't like to use. It wasn't burnt on enough as to spoil the batch and maybe a one off. But something I will be wary of in the future. Overall on a sample size of precisely one brew. So glad I bought the malt pipe. Jury still out on the filter.

We're a few brews in now with the filter, we haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary yet with the element but will keep an eye on it. The beers we have made have been standard gravity, not tons of wheat etc... That might be next on the experiment list!

So, for what it's worth, I'm updating my thoughts a few months and brews on. They have changed considerably. The malt pipe is now consigned to the back of the cupboard forever, or to be sold. It's rubbish. Yes it has advantages, but in my experience it has two massive disadvantages. Firstly, going back to what I said before, it just lets too much trub through. I brewed a wheat beer that had so much scorching on the bottom the heating element cut out twice, the wort was burnt and had to be dumped. This is the first batch of beer I've ever chucked down the drain in 10 years of brewing. None wheat beers weren't quite so bad but still a lot worse than with the original kit. Secondly, mash efficiency nosedived. I plan my recipes on 80%, I got between 62% and 72% with this, no matter how slowly I sparged. I suspect mainly because the recirc and sparge, flow mainly out of the side holes and not fully through the grain bed as before. I have returned to the original malt pipe now. Much less trub. Efficiency restored. The hop plate however, I find excellent as a false bottom now I know what I'm doing with it. I add it after the malt pipe has been removed and the bottom has had a good scrape. This gives excellent wort clarity even with large volume hop stands and clean up is a doddle again. No need to whirlpool and no pump flow issues. I understand other peoples takes may be different. Maybe mine has a machining issue or something. But this is my conclusion on the use of these products. Happy brewing.

@@richardhaynes2025 Very helpful; thanks for your experiences. I'd wondered how I'd know if I had a stuck mash or sparge with the v3 pipe. It's easy to tell with the central overflow because you can see how fast the bed is draining if you stop the recirculation flow - not so much when the wort is free to drain through the sides of the malt pipe. I think I may save the cash for other brewing-related things 🙂
