Instead of going through a bunch a bags each brew, I was looking for something re-usable. The herb balls didn't last too long. Pretty simple to make. 1/2" thick ends, SS screen, SS all thread, ans nuts.
Do you have to unscrew the wingnut and take the top off for multiple hop additions throughout the boil??
The screen is 2 1/4" x 5 7/16" so I think it will hold a coule ounces. I use hop pellets and once they swell I will see. I can always cut the length down if it is tooo much wasted space.
You could always buy 2 sizes of aluminum:
one 2 1/4" O.D.
one 2 3/4" O.D.
then sandwich them together, that would give good support.
