Hey everyone. I am new to home brewing beer and thought I would turn to some others. I love making wine and cider so now I have ventured into beer making. I will basically be making all gluten free beers as my girlfriend is celiac and she wants to enjoy it too.
Moving onto business, I am brand spanking new to beer so I spent some time at my local home brewing store and I picked up a couple gluten free beer kits and got started on them. They told me not to strain the hops but in my homework that I have been doing, I am seeing that you should be doing this. Here is my predicament: I have one batch that is in the secondary fermenter and one batch just went on. Would it be okay to strain when I move batch 1 over to the final fermenter before adding the priming sugar and then when I move batch 2 to the second fermenter. It did not say anywhere in the step by step instructions to strain it but that it would clear up on it's own.
I know this may be a stupid question but I don't want to ruin what I have on right now.
All help and advice is welcome.
Thanks!
