How effective are hopbacks on the pump outlet ?

I have the brew hardware 20g with tangential inlet. Is perfect for 10g batch's. The triclamps might not be necessary for hot side but they are nice, i mounted my strainer right to the kettle. They give you a 1" dip tube which is hard to block up, even with whole leaf hops Sent from my...

I agree and dont use any bags. The strainer is directional. I mounted mine horizontal, and have to slow my pump way down to run that amount of hops. I imagine it would work better on the pressure side of the pump. It works well for me, The slow flow allows the chiller more time to be...
