Hi there,
I'm only a few weeks away from bottling my first batch of home brew - assuming everything stays the course, that is.
Since I'm using one of those solid white fermenting buckets - instead of a glass carboy - I'm assuming it's going to be a little difficult to eye my brew while I'm racking it, making sure I don't suck up any unnecessary crud.
Is it uncommon to skim away whatever stuff might be sitting on top of my beer before siphoning it over to my bottling bucket? Just wanna make sure I bottle only the good stuff.
Thanks!
