So in order to aerate my wort during my first brew (last week), I poured my gallon of wort into a small strainer, sitting on top of a small funnel, that led to my 1 gallon glass carboy.
There's gotta be a better way to do this. I feel like last time, I got "lucky" and poured everything right in with no spillage, but the setup was extremely clumsy.
Because I don't have a bucket (and I'm not going to be buying any), I can't just dump it in/etc., I need to work with what I've got, but I need there to be a better way. I literally put a small kitchen funnel in my carboy neck, then I balanced a small kitchen strainer (that was the same size as the funnel) on top of the funnel, and poured the wort in, collecting all of the setiment after the boil. I nailed it, but I'm scared to do it again....And I'm brewing tomorrow.
HELP!
