There's a few tricks that help but for me the easiest and most reliable is to allow it to foam up into the 3Rd plate turn it off and allow 10mins to settle before starting again. This breaks the proteins out of suspension and usually runs fine for the rest of the run.
It'll still use more headroom than any other wash!
Thanks for the tip... do you worry about a dolop of oil? :handgestures-thumbupleft:
I'll be only running about 26-27 ltrs in a 50 ltr boiler, so that should help a fair bit.
I'd love to be able to do the protein rest when mashing, but i havent got the setup to do so. Even if it didnt stop the foaming, it would have to help.
