I was looking for some supplies this morning with crossmyloof and found these.

Hops bags... Got me thinking these could be better, more convenient, easier and cheaper than a hop spider... and less trub with pellets?
Weight your hops straight into bags - and then just toss em in as required.... bugger the spider
I have checked - they are safe for boiling.
I am adding a few to my next order.
Hop bags
Re: Hop bags
I see they also do teabags of pellets.

Re: Hop bags
Just bought a couple myself along with some more yeast. I've been using the reusable veg bags from Lidl/Aldi but these look to be a bit better. Time will tell

Re: Hop bags
Mash,
Why buy the expensive ones?
Why not buy (30p) supermarket ones as soupdragon mentioned?
270mm x 270mm, much bigger than the other ones, loads of room for the
Hops and the weights ( Dunelm glass thingys in bags ).

Re: Hop bags
Mash,
Didn`t look very far did you?
Small bags good for 50gr Leaf Hops,
Big bags good for 150gr Leaf Hop or combine the 2 for mega hopping.

Re: Hop bags
Lol.
Google came up with gin glasses.. Thought "hmm that's not it"
Good idea BTW. Currently using ss fittings to get stuff to sink.
