My beers that go into secondary have less sediment in the bottle. That is it.

What I am sipping now was in primary for 3 months with no secondary. It is a delicious slightly roasty porter.

It does have a visible layer of yeast in the bottom of the bottle....I am sipping from a glass.

Interesting that there seems to be geographic differences between people who use a secondary and people who don't (most of you that say you use a secondary are Texans). I'm just getting started (and am a Texan), but I'm using a secondary and my LHBS (located in Texas) recommends it too.

I don't know.

I'm from Buffalo, NY and I got into an argument with a guy who told me I CANNOT dry hop because I don't secondary. *bangs head on wall*
