I have a very narrow brew window tomorrow and forgot to pick up a grain bag for my steeping grains (Extract Recipe) Any problem with skimming them out with a strainer after steeping?
 
Do you have access to getting a pair of panty hoes? If you can make your way out to pick up a pair you can cut it and use it as a muslin bag.
 
Why not just steep your grains in a separate pot and pour it into your brew kettle through a strainer.
 
If you can pick up a paint strainer from a hardware store, that'll work great...plus you can clean it and use it over and over!
 
They ended up in this situation on Brewing TV episode 5. they used a strainer also and it worked great. looks like pretty easy cleanup too
