Do agree with both of you. I just bottle prime because my second bucket is always been used and I think I can avoid some infection with my method.
Tomorrow I`ll bottle a Bohemian Pils using the bottling bucket and primming solution. I`ll post the result.
By the way, tnx for the help mates...

Badbrew, I don`t know about your bucket, but mine got a blue valve facing up inside the bucket that avoids sucking must (or usually) all the trub. After chilling the fermenter, the trub gets really compact and I bottle straight from the primary. Works really well and save lots of work...

This 'no reusing' yeast is a proper comercial bull sh it.
Recycle it !!!!

Never had problems with infection sedment or over/under carbonation. I usually get some fining agents on the boilling to...
