So, as per many suggestions here I went to my local hardware store to be some paint strainer bags for doing all-grain mashing. In the check-out line I realize these have an elastic top and then I realize that these are obviously not made of rope or cloth fiber but some nylon plastic stuff. These *aren't* meant for cooking. 1) Did I get the right kind (Trimaco SuperTuff) and 2) Um, surely the folks who have been doing this kind of mashing have taken it's heat resistance into account haven't they. The bags won't melt will they? Not even if I have an accident and turn the heat up to 212F will they?
Ah, newbies! We *love* to worry, don't we. (But come on... *paint* thinner bags don't fill anyone with images of home-cooked goodness, do they? I *hope* not!)
