Hops Woes

[PanzerOfDoom]

What's the best way to keep hops from clogging the siphon tube on my kettle drain? Does bagging hops prevent any release of hop oils during the boil? Or is a bazoka filter the way to go?

I'll second the Dude on the hopstopper...it works great. And POD, yes, a hop bag will limit hop utilization.

I have a bazooka filter, but I suspect the hop stopper is better if you hop load you ales.
