Check out a way that I came up with to rack from my fermenter into a keg with minimal oxygen exposure. I used tubing attached to a gas disconnect as my blow off tube (had a carbonation cap connected to the disconnect going into some sanitizer). I purged all tubing with co2 before performing this. I purged a keg with co2, then racked into the keg straight through the dip tube using a liquid disconnect, and co2 is sucked back into the fermenter from the keg through the tubing that was originally my blow off tube. I call it a closed loop system. I am sure people have done this before, but check it out!
