Legging may be the only way to achieve my goal. I suppose it will b worth the investment.

Great advice! The sediment always drops out of suspension when I bottle but I would like to get rid of the sediment completely. I found a website for all of you who bottle beer and want a perfectly clear beer just like a brewery. Go to sedexbrewing.com this device allows your beer to carbonate...

No problems getting sediment out of suspension. Just trying to get a brew that's more like it just came out of a brewery.

Try an auto siphon that may help keep your siphon from letting stuck.

That seems like it would work well. My plan was to use my mesh bag over the end of my racking cane. But I think your idea will work better. Doesn't have to b perfect just a lil less sediment would be nice. Thank you!

I've been doing some research on filtering home brew. I have found many complicated processes to filter but I would like to find a simple way to filter my beer before bottling. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have never heard anything like that before I guess I should do some research on that. Protein rest are great for under modified grains but its never caused me problems with fully modified grains.

Oh by the way atreid has a good theory. Under modified grains do have a better chance at having better head formation and retention but there are other issues that under modified grains present. Nothing a good step mash won't solve though.

I'm not a fan of adjuncts so I try to avoid them all together. Starting at a temp of 130-135F should do the trick. You can pick up little things like this by reading some books such as designing great beers. If you use my tip let me know how it works for you it's never done me wrong. Good luck!

The only thing I know to do is to start your mash at 130-135F and hold that temp for 30 mins before raising to 150-158F. I don't know how you have been using mash temps to your advantage but that's the best place to begin looking for the issue. Good luck!

I would just boil 2.5 gallons its much easier to maintain during the boil and it boils a lot faster. Also cooling 2.5 gallons as opposed to 5 is also a lot faster unless you have a wort chiller. Keep it simple and easy and be sure to post how your first batch turned out. Good luck!
