Freddie Wallace – Pub Equipment View Profile →
- Pro: The silicon washer is top-notch, creating a genuinely tight, leak-proof seal.
- Con: The very fine mesh requires a prompt, thorough rinse to prevent clogging.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Old Mill Inn, a popular pub in the heart of the Cotswolds, was struggling with hop debris from their dry-hopped ales clogging their beer lines, resulting in hazy pints and wasted stock.
"We were constantly clearing out blocked tap lines, which was a real pain during a busy service. These strainers sorted the problem instantly. Our ales are noticeably clearer, our regulars have noticed, and the bar staff are much happier."
Robert Green – Landlord & Brewer
After implementation, The Old Mill Inn reduced beer wastage from cloudy pints by over 10% and significantly cut down on time spent on line maintenance.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure tap threads are clean and free of debris before attaching.
- Hand-tighten the strainer firmly; there's no need for heavy tools.
- Check the silicon washer is correctly seated inside the strainer before screwing it on.
- Run a small amount of water through first to confirm a perfect, drip-free seal.
Keeping It Going
- Rinse immediately after every use to prevent hop residue from drying and hardening.
- For a deep clean, soak in a suitable brewery-safe cleaning solution.
- Regularly inspect the silicon washer for any signs of wear, cracking, or perishing.
- Store in a dry, clean container to maintain hygiene between uses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can these strainers be used for whole leaf hops?
A: They are best suited for hop pellets or plugs. The fine mesh can clog quickly with the larger particles from whole leaf hops.
Q: Is the silicon washer replaceable?
A: The included washer is designed to be very durable, but it is a standard size, making it possible to find a replacement if one is ever needed.
Q: What cleaning solutions are safe for this product?
A: Most standard brewery-safe caustic or acid-based line cleaners are perfectly fine to use on both the stainless steel and the silicon washer.
Q: Will this fit any standard beer tap?
A: Yes, it is designed to fit the thread of standard UK and European beer taps and shanks.
Q: Are these dishwasher safe?
A: While the material is dishwasher safe, we always recommend hand cleaning and sanitising with brewery-specific chemicals to ensure maximum hygiene.
Q: What is the micron rating of the mesh?
A: The specific micron rating is not provided, but it is a fine mesh specifically designed to effectively capture hop pellet debris and cold break trub.
Q: Can I use this for filtering other ingredients, like fruit puree for sours?
A: Absolutely. It works very well as a pre-filter for small, fine particles in many different beverage applications, not just beer.
Q: Is the stainless steel food-grade?
A: Yes, Beaumont uses high-quality, food-grade 304 stainless steel for all its professional beverage and bar components.

It might seem like a tiny detail, but the silicon washer on this strainer is crucial for quality control. Cheaper plastic or rubber seals can degrade, crack, and fail, leading to slow, sticky leaks that waste your product and create a mess. Think of it like the seal on a jam jar – a cheap, flimsy one lets air in and spoils the contents. This robust silicon washer does the opposite; it creates a perfect, airtight and watertight seal on your tap every time. This means every last drop of your precious brew goes exactly where it's supposed to, preventing costly waste and protecting your beer from contamination during transfer.
