I have just ordered myself a plate chiller and knowing that you can't strip them to clean I was wondering if anyone pre filtered hot wort before running it through the chiller in an attempt to hold back trub.
Something like a few layers of muslin type gauze in a funnel or some similar container is what I have in mind so that I don't have the problem of "hop bits" etc blocking it up so that cleaning it will be more straight forward with soda crystals or oxyclean etc.
Any thoughts??
