we always drain off the first running out of the fermenter. ie about 200 ml. From there we bottle, two or three longys and then we keg. at the arse end of the fermenter we bottle sum more so we dont get any sludge in the kegs.

ahhhh... i forgot to add. the flavour of the hops that is! Much more hop flavour that is out of a bottle than a keg..

So at the end of the day..... Is 15 grams of yeast better than 11grams? The whole reason i started this thread, was that with the beer that we were brewing we were getting really yeasty crap leftover in our kegs. After tipping them out. And really tarty/lemon flavour in our brews. So i went on a...

good work yob! im a person who likes his shit correct. I hate companys that take a product and repack it. And claim it as their own. Sure enough, it mayb from the same company.but i like the orignal packinging to say its straight from the factory and direct to the client! :beerdrink:
