The video is from a link to another forum of someone's round Yorkshire square fermentor set up in this post.

I am looking to try and recreate something similar to see if I can tame the phenols from WLP037.

I ferment is SSbrewtech brew buckets and found they have a premade lid for the mini brew bucket with a big hole in the middle.

The plan is to use one of those lids to connect a yeast trough(plastic bucket) to the main fermentor.

The center hole is 1.75in so hopefully that it large enough allow a good portion of the yeast to escape.

When I watched the video it looked like the level of the beer in the fermentor was considerable lower than the top of the fermentor, but I seen comments that the fermentor was filled to the brim. Not sure how important that is going to be, but I have had yeast escape through the airlock hole from a 3/4 filled fermentor before so I think it will find it way if I fill it almost full.

Might first try just putting a aerator thing like in the video into a big stopper (no yeast trough) and do a closed system automated rousing to see what that does.
