How do you siphon without doing it by mouth, and without special tools

So it is normal for all the white stuff in the bitten. Also how do you siphon without doing it by mouth.

I forgot to mention it is a festa brew kit.

I just switched my beer from my fermenting pale to my carboy, the instructions say to leave the leftover sediment in the pale, but I need to to use the pale again, do I leave the sediment in the pale or just dispose of it?

So how do I know when to put it over to my carboy.

Yrs I am but after 3 to 5 I switch to another jug for 7 ya 10 days. I'm doing a festa brew kit.
