Hi guys,
Just had a few questions about racking (secondary fermenting).
Firstly, are they the same thing?
Secondly, due to space and sizing limitations, I have one Coopers fv and a smaller thin fv that fits into my bar fridge. If I do a secondary fermentation - can I put it in the larger one, quickly clean the smaller one, and put it back in the latter again? How is this done without splashing the crap out of the beer?
Is it just to get the beer off of the yeast cake to prevent off flavours? Is it always needed?
Thanks
