too much trub?

[Boek]

Is a gallon of green trub left after bottling an ipa excessive? Is a hop sock worth using? Other ways to cut down on trub? Seems like a lot of wasted beer.

Hop bag will help in that regard. I use a bag unless using whole hops and it's worked out well with far less wasted beer/trub.
