I have been AG brewing for a couple of years now with mixed results using boil in a bag, not chilling and using dry yeasts ( US-05 ect ). Got temp control. I don't use a cube and cover the boil pot with a x of plastic wrap, the lid and a couple of litres of water in a jug. Seems to work quite well. Next day I use a sanitized jug too transfer ( including trub ) to FV. Re-hydrate yeast and have never had a problem with fermentation. Also have good mash temp control. Bottle with sugar. Good sanitisation.
But I got back into home brewing to make a better product and I really want to up the game a bit if poss.
Can anyone give me some advice on a couple of things;
Is it worth getting the wort off the trub and will this make a lot of difference using a syphon or tap.
Will a wort chiller be worth the investment. I know it will make hop additions more accurate.
Or any other way that will improve my beer.
Thanks for any advice.
