I have a brew hardware ebiab setup that uses a 15g spike kettle. I mainly do 5g batches and chill with a jaded hydra. Leaving the FB in after the mash sets my chiller up to high (not enough contact with the wort) so i need to pull it out of the kettle prior to boil. Anyone in a similar situation come up with a way to easily remove the FB? it fits pretty tight in the kettle so it likely needs to be lifted out from the center so it doesn’t tip and get stuck.
My cheap/lazy attempt was to bend a hook into a piece of solid copper wire and “fish” it out. That works but is kind of clumsy.
Thanks
