Yes I know it's been discussed before but I've had a rethink.
Here's my ponderings.
1. Most cornies are only 19l I'm used to putting 23l into primary. So less beer for the same brew effort.
2. I was thinking of removing the safety valve and using that port for fitting a airlock. Would I need to drill it out?
3. Could I use the dip tube to remove yeast and trub in the same way as a conical? If so I'd just tap it until wort came out instead of trub. The idea being I then wouldn't need to go to secondary.
4. Following on, could I just prime and leave in the thing for kegging. (I'd just change the lid to a none air locked lid.)
5. I can fit 2 cornies in the space of one carboy.
Am I over simplifying things?
