I've been having issues with my loose leaf hops not completely allowing my unfermented beer to drain through the false bottom of the boil kettle. I like using whole hops because of the benefit of collecting a portion of the hot break going onto the wort chiller and fermenter. It filters out some of the mess going into the fermenter.
I have some mesh hop sacks, but I'm wondering if anyone had notice a decrease in the amount of hop utilization using them. I've used them with pellets before, with loose leaf to collect the hot break; but I'm wondering if anyone has noticed a difference.
Thanks,
