This Saturday night I did indeed rack my brown ale to secondary. For those who may not recall, I had some questions last week on whether or not to skim the krausen; by Saturday most of it had fallen and I just decided to leave the rest. I racked into my freshly cleaned/sanitised 5 gallon carboy, figuring that I'd bring it right up to the top of the shoulder to maximise my yield and minimise airspace. I was able to do so, and then filled the tube for the hydrometer from the siphon. Just as I completed drawing this sample, the liquid ran out, so I had just enough with no waste. No particular questions here; just wanted to share. -- Don Levey $ cd /pub Framingham, MA $ more beer NOTE: email server uses spam filters; mail sent to salearn@the-leveys.us will be used to tune the blocking lists.
