Did I just mess up? I just bottled a NEIPA and at the last moment I decided to use one of those coffee filter baskets that take the place of a paper filter for coffee brewing. There were a few hops, flocculated yeast and other things still suspended at various levels even though the beer was pretty clean looking for a NEIPA. So straining it as it went into my priming pot seemed the thing to do.
Now I'm wondering if the basket filter might be too fine and I strained out the yeast that were to be my means of carbonation. There really wasn't much in the filter basket for me to have been worried about using it.
Any thoughts? I guess it's really time will tell. I'll pop the top on one in a week and see what's going on or not going on.
