I have have very kindly been sent some empty bags to fill with hops and use like giant tea bags.
Hoping they will be super clean but still as efficient as a 800 micron spider.
Had anyone else tried these or similar?

Re: Hop tea bags
MB,
If they are the Veg bags, great for hops, Leaf and Pellet.
Just a quick boil (10 mins) to sterilise them.
WA.
Are they paper bags, handbags, carrier bags, plastic bags or the draw string Veg bags from Aldi / Asda?

Re: Hop tea bags
Hmm,
Similar to the asda veg bags. Bit smaller (squarer) but same material as and look like giant tea bags (with a draw string) but can be heat sealed.

Looks like I am an outlier in the teabag hopping idea.

Re: Hop tea bags
And a better match... Proper Tea bags have a finer grade of tea in them.
Enter hop pellets rather than leaf.
So I think they will be very good with pellets (Messy little feckers )

Re: Hop tea bags
Have done 3 brews now with the hop-bags all good so far.
