I used to use a Fullhorn, nice bit of kit, I used the Klarstein bag with it as well. I found the torpedo kept blocking so I ditched it.
It helps to recirculate the wort, initially I just used a jug and kept filling it from the tap and pouring in the top, checking the temperature in the jug as well as in the kettle and adjusting manually by tuning the 900w setting on and off as required throughout the mash. I never trusted the Fullhorns thermometer.
Then just bang it on 101C for the boil and once it gets to a rolling boil knock it down from 2.4 to 1.6Kw
 
I have a Fullhorn.
Recently upgraded to a big 35l Maishfest.

I'm going to go back to the Fullhorn.
It never got blocked, I could lift the grain bag out - which I can't with the Maishfest, the malt pipe is too heavy & too high, even when I use rope & pulley, it's too high to fit in my brewing marquee.
I can't use a bazooka on it either as the malt pipe sits too low
I have a fullhorn !!!
