just a quick tip that may help with hop utilization whilst using a hop spider.
Use a small handful of rice hulls/oat husks between hop additions to aid the flow through the hops especially if using pellets
 
Good tip! Just bought a hop spider but the first brew with it is still in the FV so waiting to see if there's a difference in the hop utilisation. It was so much easier than cleaning out whole leaf hops from the robo brew though, I'd be happy using a few grams extra hops in the spider and avoiding the mess.
