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
