Hey all, I've been brewing for a while now but I feel like this is a newb question. I've been using whirlfloc tablets for my last 10 or so brews to try and aid in my quest for clearer beers. But it dawned on me Monday as I was transferring my wort to primary that since I don't have a pickup tube, don't whirlpool and dump the entire contents of the BK through a double mesh strainer is the whirlfloc tablet really worth it?
My initial thought was, well probably, if the tablet gets all the extra junk to drop out then the strainer will catch more right? But since I'm not that familiar with the science behind the whirlfloc tablet I was curious if the strainer would catch all that gunk anyways and the tablet is just redundant?
Any comments would be appreciated.
