    BM20 - Malt Pipe Seal Issues

    Hi all, Looking to see if any BM owners on here have had any issues with the red / brown maltpipe seal dropping off when you extract the pipe? I've brewed about 6 times now and it has happened twice recently. It's a b*gger to get out when it is below the elements once you have sparged, the...
