Bac Brewing Yield Increase Disc

[RichardM]

It's my birthday soon, I 've been thinking about a Bac Brewing Yield Increase Disc.
They do two, one with a fine mesh https://www.bacbrewing.com/en/parts...r-bm10bm10plus-fine-mesh-filter-09x09-mm.html and one with a slightly coarser mesh https://www.bacbrewing.com/en/parts...r-bm10bm10plus-fine-mesh-filter-09x09-mm.html

Does anyone have any experience of either of these? Which would you recommend?

Coarse mesh [only] is brilliant.

Brewing increase disc is a waste of time imo. Turn you top disc over.

If you haven't got a seal for the edge of the top disc male/get one, they are superb.

Alt. Birthday present ideas.. .
Bouncers are brilliant.
Bac paddle (but I would say that )

I guess turning the top disc over and using the seal would give pretty much the same increase.
I've already got the whirlpool paddle.
"Bouncers"?

I use the seal all the time. Stops fountains on small grain bills.

Extra filters are good tooo. With push fit silicone cured silicone hose it is a game changer.

What about a BM FIK kit?

Red Silicone hose with a 2mm wall. Sellotape it to the worktop, and run a razor through top wall. Voila

If you decide to got for it I will double check for you. Shout up.

I have a seal for the top disc, I just don't often use it.
I don't think I need a bouncer, with whilrpooling the bac springer and cold crashing I'm quite pleased with how clear my beers are.

Now I know what a bouncer is you are going to have to explain FIK

Ferment in kettle.
