The pin that holds it in place breaks easily, not designed very well.

Easy to install, and worked well during my water leak test following installation. Will use it for the 1st time tomorrow for whirlpooling wort.

Easy to install works as advertised

This works well and is the full kit - no bulkhead required. I love that it does not require a bulkhead to install since the valve is cast such that it sits against the kettle.

I was torn between this and several other whirlpool fittings. Glad I chose the Blichmannn. First run, I gave it the beans - whirlpooled with 9 ounces of pellets. Let it run clockwise for about 10 mins, then let it sit for another 10-15 to settle out. Holy hop pile! The cone of pellets was about 4 inches high. I highly recommend this.

I do quite a few beers that require mostly whirlpool hops. I used a powered paddle in the past and decided to put one of these into my G2 kettle not only for hop whirlpool, but also to get a nice trub cone before chilling.The unit is expensive in it's own right, and you need to have a decent powered drill, and requires a step bit that is capable of drilling through SS..this is about 40 dollars, and a center punch.Overall, great product, works very nice just be aware of the extra costs that you may incur when deciding to put of of these in.

The whirlpool port was easy to install. I was a little worried about leaks because the seal is made with a single gasket, but after two brew sessions I haven’t seen any indication of leakage.

I installed this on the boil kettle of a new 27 gallon setup I acquired and first used it this weekend. Install was as easy and fast as drilling stainless steel can be. The linear valve fully disassembles for easy cleaning and it is nice to be able to control the speed of the whirlpool pending on what you are using it for. I initially used it so mix the runnings from the mash tun (I still stirred the hell out of them to make sure initial gravity readings were correct) then I used it at the traditional whirlpool. It also worked well when cleaning with PBW and Starsan. I wish I had this a lot sooner as it super useful. I would highly recommend this product.

Very well made, seals tightly, easy to remove the inside tube to clean. Outside will pull out if you unscrew it enough and you can clean it as well. Well worth the money!!

I bought the linear valve version of the whirlpool kit and it's killer. Super easy install and the linear valve makes it easy to adjust the speed of the whirlpool to whatever you need.

Excellent addition to my brewing setup. Highly recommend for a great Whirlpool and less Tru.

well designed and constructed performs perfectly. bought this with the riptide.

Great product as always from Blichmann. Works well.

Would recommend. Easy to install, works as advertised.

Need to make sure you have the right bits to get through SS#304, but once installed works nicely. I connected with Blichmann RipTide pump, added quick connects to pump and whirlpool, making switching from whirlpool to plate chiller a breeze.

I have been wanting to whirlpool in the kettle for a while, didn't have the time to develop something. This is a quality product that will help you to chill your wort when using an immersion chiller or, what I also use it for with great results, is a kettle flame out hop addition, I'll chill the wort to 160f, stop the chill water, add pellet hops, and whirlpool for 10-15 min. Awesome hop aroma and flavor addition, similar to a hop back, but much easier. The arm is adjustable for different kettle volumes. No leak when installed as per instructions.

Whirpool este sistema lo recomiendo al 100%, practico y facil de instalar, muy bueno
