    I don't think it would catch much, and some of those window screens are actually made of plastic or vinyl or something. Some of them are sprayed with something so the metal doesn't rust. Prob wouldn't want that stuff in your beer.

    Yeah go with a nice metal colander.

    That brew bucket looks like it needs a good scrub :)

    CONSDAVE

    Never considered putting on women's stocking while I brew. Does it work for you?
