Getting coffee and cocoa nibs out of my beer before bottling

I made a Founders Breakfast stout clone (just a 1.5 gallon batch) that called for ground coffee, chocolate chips and cocoa nibs added at flame out. I added that stuff directly to the kettle and realized that I had a strainer bag sitting out for a reason! Oh well beer is fermenting nicely and I’m thinking of ways to get those things physically out of the beer at bottling. I don’t do a secondary with such a small batch so I go right from primary after a few weeks to bottling bucket. Since I’ve never used coffee or chocolate in a beer, the only thing I can think is to just let the auto siphon do it’s work when transferring. I just can’t imagine coffee grounds won’t get into he bottles. Anyone else use ground coffee without a strainer in a beer?

Coffee filter. Not a joke, I’ve used one before.

I sanitize a cloth hop bag and tie it around the bottom of the auto siphon when I’m racking off whole leaf hops loose in the carboy. Should work for coffee too.

Definitely do this. Otherwise the auto-siphon will clog.

So dumb question. Just make a Star san solution and soak the hop bag (or panty hose) in it?

I’ve also used a paint strainer bag. Cheap at lowes and Home Depot

I just racked a blueberry melomel into secondary, and I had a few blueberries get through the auto siphon. Before I rack it again or bottle it (not sure if I want to put more fruit in the secondary, but I figure I have time to decide), I'm definitely tying a hop bag around the auto siphon.
