I tried my hand at whirlpooling a kettle of czech style pilsener this evening. i got it going with my racking cane. it didnt go so well. it ended up just stirring all the hot/cold break back into suspension and then racking it into my primary. now I have about three inches of sediment in the bottom my primary. I havn't pitched the yeast yet.
Here is my question. Would it be worth racking the beer out of the primary (i only have one 6.5 gallon carboy) and back into it to get it off the sediment. As it is a lager it will be sitting on that stuff for a few weeks. Or, should I just relax and have a homebrew?
