What can we expect from that?
Probably nothing too serious, no worries.

If you'd like to eleminate some of the hop trub, I use a big 5 gallon paint strainer bag to hold my hops during the boil. I made a hoop of very small PVC pipe and sewed it around there to keep it open - it's suspended in the top of my kettle with a stick.

However, I saw a guy on the forums that used a piece of like 5 in. diameter pvc that was only a couple of inches long and clamped the bag around that using one of those metal tube clamps with a screw (i'm sure there's a name for this). I searched and couldn't find and example ... it's either on Brewboard.com or theBrewingNetwork forums.
