How can I safely dispose of the sediment left in my Primary? Can it go down the drain, or will it clog up the plumbing?
Maybe a stupid question

It should be ok, I put most of mine in my compost pile, but have dumped it down the drain if it was yeast/trub and not really too thick.

It's actually good for the pipes.
Especially helpful if you have a septic tank. Yeast eats up all the bad bacteria. Works the same as Rid-X to keep your pipes cleaned.
If you learned how to wash your yeast instead of pouring it down the drain/toilet you'd save some money every time you brewed.

Yep it wont hurt anything. I'd wait to get some more exp before yeast washing. I like the idea of composting. I think ill give that a shot
