The HopRocket™ is an incredibly innovative hop-infusing tool packed with world-class features! It can be used as a hopback, but it also doubles as an inline hop infuser (Randalizer) for your beer-dispensing system. Better yet, it even triples as an inline filter*! Definitely cool, consistently reliable, and clearly Blichmann Engineering™, the HopRocket™ will send your hop aroma into orbit!

Unlike our competitors' units, made from simple kitchenware fitted with a basic false bottom, the Blichmann Engineering HopRocket™ has been designed from the ground up for efficiency and versatility to be a purpose-built, heavy-duty hopback and hop infuser. This clean-slate approach is just our track record of providing premium performance and features.

  • Pressure-tight - up to 40 psi operation!
  • Holds up to 3 oz. of whole hops as a hopback and 4 oz. as an infuser - twice as much as the competition!
  • 100% stainless construction and silicone seals
  • No need to monitor wort level because the HopRocket™ will never overflow
  • Fully enclosed system from brew kettle to fermenter means no volatile hop aromas are lost!
  • Optional HopRocket™ Mounting kit to easily integrate your Hopback into your TopTier™ modular brewing stand
  • Inlet at the bottom allows air to automatically purge to reduce hot-side aeration
  • Fine filter with wiper seal sends very clear wort to your fermenter
  • Coarse filter and cone bottom inlet prevents wort channeling and backup for even hop utilization
  • Fill with up to 3 oz. of rice hulls to use as an inline filter
  • Works on gravity systems and with pumps (about 4 feet — or 1 meter — of static head is recommended for best gravity performance)
  • Doubles as an awesome hop infuser (Randalizer) for your draft dispensing system. New Draft Dispensing Kit it available for simple installation in your home draft system
  • 1/2" NPT connections are easy to make connections— a perfect match for our popular QuickConnector™ fittings (1/2" barb, 3/8" barb and 1/4" flare)

* The HopRocket™ can be utilized as a general strainer/filter, but it is not intended to filter all the sediment and particles of your brew kettle when used as a hopback. The large quantities of pellet hops, trub, and other debris will eventually plug and compact the hop-bed, stopping flow. Installing a pre-filter in your pot is recommended to prevent excessive quantities of material from entering the hopback. That said, filling the HopRocket™ with rice hulls does greatly increase the filtering capability of the product.
