How to Specify Homebrew Hop Spider & Mash Filter

  • Diameter & length: Size to the kettle depth so the spider basket sits below the wort line.
  • Micron rating: 300 µm for boil hops; 150 µm for dry hopping to keep debris out of the fermenter.
  • Mount: Tri-leg rim mount for kettles; lid hook for fermenters.

Materials

Standard supply is stainless steel 304, stainless steel 316/316L; the material column in the table and the drawing options show the exact grade for each size. Other alloys and finishes can be quoted to your drawing.

Fitting & Care

  • Leave headroom in the basket; hops expand and need circulation for utilization.
  • Clean with PBW-type brewery cleaner and sanitize before cold-side use.

Common Mistakes

  • Packing pellet hops into a fine canister, which lowers hop utilization.
  • Using galvanized hardware that leaches zinc into wort.

When Homebrew Hop Spider & Mash Filter Is Not the Right Choice

Not a substitute for a plate chiller strainer or fermenter filtration when brite-tank clarity is required.
