I'm considering picking up a CFC, I'm curious what, if anything, people do to remove hot/cold break before wort enters the fermenter. Currently using an IC and I let it sit after cooling to allow the breaks to settle, then transfer off the top.

Thanks in advance.
 
I use a plate chiller and leave the cold break in the fermentor. You could use a settling tank and rack the wort to the fermentor after the cold break material settles out.
