Hey all,
I am going to buy my kit tomorrow and was wondering if anybody actually bottles using the spigots that come installed in the 6.5 gallon pails? It seems like it would be easier to control the flow, but I am not so sure if it is high enough to not bring all the sediment with it. My question is if I use one pail as a primary, use a second pail as a secondary, and then re-use the first pail again as a bottling bucket, would enough of the dredge be left behind to not have to worry about it? The reason I ask is 2-fold: 1) I have used the bottling thing that is spring loaded, and its kind of hard to control, and 2) I want to save any amount of money I can (poor college student!).
Thanks again!
Jason
