I brewed an oatmeal stout on Saturday that used 1 oz. of Fuggle hops. Being a bit over-zealous because I used my new immersion wort chiller, I dumped my chilled wort straight into the fermenter and forgot to filter out the hops. Any thoughts on whether the stout will be too bitter and therefore ruined? :drunk:
 
By the time you have boiled the hops for an hour you have pretty much reached the end of their bittering potential but when they cool below 180 the bittering pretty much stops anyway.
