I had an issue with these tea strainers when dry hopping in larger amounts; the hop pellets would swell to fill the strainer and become ineffective. That 11cm job looks pretty big, but if you wanted to go one bigger, try this - https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Homebre...lter-7x18cm-/332161744116?hash=item4d5661fcf4
These bad boys are great. Boil to sanitise.
Would these ones work like a hop spider in the boil or are the ends too solid for the boil agitation to get through?
Maybe suspended sideways?
 
I've tried dry hop commando but altering the STC1000 down to 2C to cold crash to clear everything is a pain in the arse.
I now wrap the hops in Chux Supawipes pulled straight from the pack. Whether it sinks or floats makes no difference.
