I use a Phil's false bottom in a round Rubbermaid (i.e., Gott) cooler.
Very effective.

Depends on how much of a stickler you are for Reinheitsgebot...

Think of how far an ounce of good red-hair bud goes. Not that I do that
sort of thing any more.

So, figure: it takes about 3/5 of an ounce of hops per gallon of beer.
According to the article, they lost 10,000 two hundred pound bales of
hops, which is 32 million ounces of hops, which comes to about 53
million gallons of beer.

(For the sticklers, this is ignoring differences between whole leaf and
pellet hops, yadda-yadda. Still a hell of a lot of beer.)

Yep that's about what they are showing... Phil False bottom, round
cooler and some weldless fittings.
Along with this I would love to finally keg... that is whole other
kettle of fish

I don't see it as a disaster, unless you're a
fan of macro brews.

"Besides being one of the largest growers in
the valley, Steiner is one of three large
merchants that buy from other growers in the
area. The others are John I. Haas Inc., the
grower-owned cooperative Yakima Chief and Hop
Union, which specializes in sales to craft
brewers."

Now if it had been Hop Union...
