This is my first time using my Blichmann conical (or any conical for that matter).
For a secondary fermentation, I was going to rack to a 6 gallon carboy, but then read you can secondary ferment in the conical, by just draining the yeast off and removing some of the trub?
Is it that simple?
Would I just open the bottom spigot on the conical and get the yeast sediment out and the trub from their too?
Or would I do yeast from the bottom and then use the rotating valve (with integrated racking arm) to try and get as much of the trub off?
Any guidance or help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
