recently watched a youtube vid (posted by jakecpunut) he was doing his first all grain batch. i am going to do my first patial mash soon.
he used paint strainer bags (1 gallon, from lowes) for hop bags.
i looked at the lowes web site and they sell 2 per pack, 5 gallon paint strainer bags in my area for $5 per 2-pack.
can any1 help me? can i use these as grain bags to mash my grains in a 5 gallon bucket then sparge them in a collander.
will they work as well as the 10 dollar bags midwest and northern brewer sell in their catalogs
any input on this is greatly appreciated
