1. Put a large paint strainer bag in the whirlpool vessel (for me it's the brewpot). Then cool and whirlpool. Lift the paint strainer out of the bag and the break material that settled to the bottom should stay in the bag.
2. Since the lower you cool the wort the more break material falls out (not related to how rapidly it's cooled, as some think), cool it down to like 35 degrees to drop out the most material possible, then put it back on the fire to bring to pitch temperature.
Are these good ideas at all?
