OK, I'm three batches into my brewing career. Decided at outset to go with kegs to eliminate bottling hassles. First batch was drinkable, a hopped can extract kit included with purchase of beginner kit. Second was very good, a kolsch extract kit from NB. Third is almost ready, man I can't wait cause kolsch is gone, an irish red extract. Next batch I'm going BIAB, a nut brown ale.
I'm all into trying to make the brewing process as easy as possible, with as few steps as possible. I currently primary in a bottling bucket, then attach tube to spigot & transfer to keg, carb & drink. One thing I'd like to improve on is to minimize or eliminate the yeast sediment that makes its way into keg. Both kegs that I emptied had a fair amount of trub right where the keg tube sits. I'm thinking the beer would taste better without the yeasty trub particles being sucked up into the line.
Any ideas, keeping in mind simplicity is pretty important to me. I guess if all my brews taste as good as the kolsch did, its not that big a deal, but if I can make it better I'm all for it. Thanks
