Hello all,
I have brewed my first batch with a simple tru brew kit. I used hop pellets and dried hops placed in a hop sock for the last minute of brewing. However, I did not strain when i transferred wort from cook pot to fermenter. There is alot of crap settling at the top (looks like yeast) and there was some hops that slipped into fermenter from the boil. When I transfer to the bottling bucket, can I use a funnel and strainer at this point? I don't want all that stuff in the bottling process but I'm pretty sure it won't hurt me. I just don't want it to screw up the taste. Any answers and info would be much appreciated and thanks in advance.
