So, I just did my first AG batch almost a week ago. Today, I looked at the bucket (I didn't lift the lid, I just mean the outside of the bucket) and right where the seam was on the side was a brown streak that was not there before. Come to find out it is a very tiny leak.... So, I need to move to a secondary fermenter. My question is, do I move all of the trub in the bottom, or just move the liquid????
 
I would let the beer ferment out before transferring. Just spray some sanitizer on the area where it is leaking a few times a day. As long as it's not leaking bad, you won't lose too much.
