Default Bags

Do you guys re-use your hops and barley boil bags? Seems like their pretty hard to clean..

I reuse mine. Turn them inside out and rinse well. Sometimes I get lazy and run them through the washing machine's rinse/spin cycle (no detergent).

Yep, same here. No issue at all cleaning them up. They don't need to be spotless. Just get all the hop particles out that you can and save for the net batch.
