I did a Best Beer Kit Irish Stout (I think the OG was 1.042) and it has been in primary for around a month or so. I am in no hurry to bottle this one and was thinking about aging it in the carboy. If I am going to keep it aging for more than another month, do I need to rack it off the trub? It is pretty clean beer and not much trub at the bottom. I don't want to risk oxydation if I don't have to, just worried about aging on the trub.
 
You will be fine letting it sit on the trub. Any reason why you want to age a dry stout?
 
Not necessarily wanting to, simply not in a hurry (and don't have the bottles) to bottle it right now, so I figured I would age it.
