I recently bought a homebrew kit, that came with a pilsner ingredient kit. The booklet that came with it said to, in a nutshell, boil the ingredients and add to cold water. There was no mention of straining the hops out before adding to the fermenter. I'm currently reading The Complete Joy of Homebrewing and it says in there that whenever you add hops, you need to strain them out before adding to the fermenter.
Which is correct? Is my beer going to taste like crap because I didn't strain the hops before adding to the fermenter?
I appreciate any help or feedback.
