  • Big Ol' Hop Sack!

    So we've decided to sew a big ol' ginormous hop sack to fit in our hopback and help with keeping hops out of the HX and help cleanup at the end. Anyone have any idea what the sort of nylon mesh they use for those standard pre-sewn hop sacks, say from Country Malt Group or homebrew stores, is called?

    I have made similar things before and what I found was silkscreen material at the local art supply shop, in several different mesh sizes and it comes in large pieces or off a roll. Otherwise look at your local fabric shop and consider using a coarse muslin, its cotton, washable and much cheaper and may be easier to find, and with some trial and error you can find a workable, affordable option. Cheers!
