I strain my wort as pouring into carboy
I never strain my wort
I never strain my wort
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't...
I got a false bottom with my new brewpot for ag, will it keep the hops out, or is it not fine enough?
I have a large funnel with a mesh screen built in that I place in the neck of my carboy. I just pour straight from my kettle... but it never fails that it clogs a few times while transferring. I use a spatchula to move the sediment off of the screen so the wort can continue to flow, but I end up having to pull the screen off a few times to rinse it out.
There must be a better way! Enlighten my noobie mind.
Pour you sparge water over, and then use something to wring as much liquid out of your grain as possible (mash paddle, another pot, etc.).
