I just brewed my first batch in like 11yrs.
-48 oz. of pale LME
-16 oz. adjunct extract LME
-Boiled 60 min in my home made Copper brew-pot
-2 ounces Cascade pellets for 60 min.
-1.5 oz of hallertauten pelltes for 15 min.
-10 grams of nottington yeast + 2 grams of nutrient
When i went to pour the batch into the fermentor, I realized that I needed to filter out all those pellets flying all over my wort pot. So I used a paint filter thingy(made of paper and Mesh). Sucked real bad, would only filter 3/4 of a pint before clogging. What should i do next time? should a person BAG the pellets? Do those BAGs really work? Can a person just throw those hops right in the fermentor with no filtration at all? Or can a person use some kind of a nylon streched over the circumference of the top of the pail? Or can someone give me some better suggestions.
