any comments on whats EASIER/LESS DEBRIS TRANSFER using glass carboy primary/secondaries with racking cane to kegs or ported better bottles with siphon hose to keg?? Are they relatively the same?
 
Leave beer behind, or go with paint strainer or muslin bag on the out end (the in end tends to ruin the siphon)....

I use these on my cornies, since I ferment in corny, but would probably work on racking cane (NOT plastic ones- they will scratch and horde bacteria) sure screens from northern brewer. This would be on the in end, but again, probably clog and stop your siphon.

I'd go with a paint strainer probably- rack into secondary through this (in secondary vessel) and slowly pull out to remove sediment. Could also use it going into bottling bucket or keg. There are a few post on these if you do a search. Good luck!
