I am trying to get all the info I need before my next (second) batch so I can get everything, well mostly everything right this time.
For this first batch I didnt strain off any of the cold break so there is a lot of stuff floating around in there right now, since it hasnt even started to settle out yet. I plan on straining it though cheese cloth when I am racking it to get rid of any of it that may get sucked up by the siphon.
My question is...
Can I strain the wort through cheese cloth when adding it into the carboy to strain that off from the getgo or will taking all of that away take some things that I actually need away also?
Thanks
