Bayou Classic False Bottom For 8 Gallon Brew Kettle. 800-908. Brewing Accessories. A false bottom sits 3. 25 inches off the bottom of a brew kettle and prevents grains and particles from entering the spigot chamber. This false bottom is made to be used with an 8 gallon Bayou Classic brew kettle. This heavy screen rests on an indentation in the side of the kettle and creates a tight barrier. A bale handle is attached to the screen to easily pick it up, so that you can dispose of the grains and particles.
