I finally found a blichmann top tier. Its still packed in the back of my Land Rover because I drove all day to pick it up and got home late. But its a sweet, hardly used , 3 burner 20 gal pot system. It includes a blichmann tower of power HLT controller. It has all QC fittings and Blichmann auto spare and a ss wort chiller. Plus he threw in a bunch of extras. Stir-plate, refractometer, large 4 ft. oxygen bottle with regulator and diffusion stone. ph meters (2) etc. all for 1000.00.I plan on adding a pump and maybe a plate chiller. But I have a question. The HLT has no false bottom (of course). The mash tun does (of course) But the boil kettle doesn't have a false Botton or a pickup tube. Should I spring for a replacement false bottom and pickup? Or go a different way?My old BK has a false bottom. Looking forward to everyones advice.
