For infusions, do you strain through the sieve first?

CaptainRedBeard wrote:So I have been thinking that some of my straining/filtering methods are probably wrong. So I thought I'd throw this out to see what methods some of you use to make your fine products. Here's what I'm doing:
Grains- Grain Bag(soak or rinsing)
Wash (prevent corn going into boiler)- Flour Sieve
Fruit Infusions- Coffee Filters (takes forever)or grain bag (stains)
Carbon- Coffee Filters (I carbon soak neutral)
After Oaking- I'm thinking of using coffee filters
So how do you filter?
