HopBack Pro

Late Hopping between whirlpool and wort cooler

Efficient Extraction and Solids-Retention

• Thanks to specially designed flow control, wort flows through all hop cone layers with no dead flow zones or bypasses
• This ensures that all hop cones are quickly, evenly, and efficiently extracted
• An integrated sieve filters out solid particles

Easy Filling and Emptying

• Comfortable filling via  manhole
• Automatable filling available for large volumes
• Manual emptying via gate valve into a rolling collection basin, or fully automatic emptying via screw pump into a silo are both possible

Targeted Extraction with Agitator

• Specially designed agitator gently and efficiently mechanically opens hop cones to       accurately and quickly extract the hop aromas   located in the lupulin glands at the leaf bases.
• This allows aroma extraction to be substantially independent of isomerization, making delicate and refined “late-hopping aromas” possible.

Hop savings of up to 30% possible!

Reduced Wort Loss

• The HopBack acts as a pre-filter when late hopping with pellets, reducing wort loss in the whirpool.

Flexible Use

• Can be used for orange peel, coriander, or other aromatic flavorings
