Will my Wilser brew bag work for making jelly?

[z-bob]

I think it should, unless the mesh is too tight and it will clog up immediately with cooked fruit pulp. I cooked some crabapples tonight to make some jelly tomorrow (or the next day if it takes too long to drip) and the brewing bag seems like an ideal tool instead of messing with cheesecloth. But I could be overlooking something. The juice will probably stain the bag but I don't care about that.

I use 5 gallon nylon paint strainers for hops, as well as jelly or nut milk straining. Usually that's the perfect size for those projects.

Thank you! I have used 1-gallon and 5-gallon paint strainer bags for making jelly before, but I forgot about them. I probably have a few already, if I can just find them...
