I think this is my first post here, so I hope it isn't a stupid question.
I just picked up an immersion wort chiller and would like to use it to combat the chill haze I have been getting in all my brews. I understand that the rapid chilling will allow all the proteins to precipitate out of the wort and settle to the bottom of the brewpot.
My question is this: Do I then need to siphon the wort to the fermenter instead of pouring it in to take advantage of this effect? Or if I pour will the proteins just settle to the bottom of the fermenter as well?
Thanks all!
