Hi all.
Some great advise on here so firstly a big thanks to all.
So here we go.
Brew 2 complete, a Young's American IPA.
I'm contemplating how to filter out that hop debris.
The hops are supposed to go into the brew just 2 or 3 days before bottling or adding to the keg for the final 2 weeks brew with sugar.
I've found with brew no.2 ignore the keg, but mix with sugar in the keg and transfer immediately into bottles.
I've opened one bottle after 2 weeks of allowing co2 to build and WOW... propper head on my beer. Left a little in the bottle and this morning yep there's sediment.
When I transfer to the keg, I use a clean pillow case, soaked and rinsed with cleaning solution to filter the hops.
I'm thinking of a finer filter. Or even 2 or 3 filtering processes.
Any thoughts ?
