Review on Reusable Straining Filter Drawstring Multi Size by William Burnett

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good quality but 5-8 gallon bags are too small for brewing whole grain beers.

When I received the package I was initially pleased, everything seems to be of good quality and the string fits my 8 gallon kettle perfectly. My kettle is 13.75 inches in diameter and 13.5 inches deep, which is probably the largest size it can fit. This worked well for a partially mashed Irish stout that weighs about 6 pounds of grain, but there really isn't room for more. The description says it's for brewing, but I don't see how it can hold more than 10 pounds of grain, which is the only reason I bought it. With smaller teapots, they decrease in both diameter and depth, so they always seem too short. Disappointing! If it were a few inches lower it would be perfect.

Pros
  • Kitchen & Dining
Cons
  • Weak Set
