All Grain? Hah! No problem

[BierMuncher]

I had been pouring from my spigot into the bucket, but I think I may start siphoning from now on. Even with irish moss my red is cloudy as all get out, which I think is because I let too much of the trub go into the fermenter. I'm sure it can be any number of things, but I'll try mixing up my routine and see how it goes.

I used to fight the trub.

But now this:



Gives me wort into my fermenter that looks like this:

Just racked my Centennial Blonde to secondary and for anyone interested:

My hydrometer sample from primary vessel is probably 100x better than any extract I've ever made. Of course I do not put all the credit to All-Grain, because I also did my first full boil & Controlled fermentation temp's. But my beer finally tastes like *Gasp* BEER! No twang, no off flavors, just go ol' delicious beer.

I can't wait to pop my first bottle when it's aged properly. Thanks for the great recipe BierMuncher
