Just curious about opinions on filtering before fermentation after an all grain brew.
Currently I whirlpool the boil a bit and then run the wort off into a bucket with the wort chiller in it, but before it hits the bucket I have a nice wire mesh strainer on top of the chiller that helps collect any extra grain and most of the hops.
Would like to hear thoughts on this practice. Other practices. Benefits or consequences on filtering out all the hops before primary.
Love to hear from you... Cheers!
