Sterilising Hop Socks
Howdy, I've dry hopped in the past by just slinging the hops into the FV, but have been thinking about using a weighted hop sock to make them sink properly. The one thing I can't get my head round though is how best to sterilise the hop sock? Any advice would be most welcome

Yeah, wash it out after use, boil it before next use
no palate, no patience.
