After putting down my biggest grain usage beer to date last weekend, I'm noticing a hell of a lot mroe trub at the bottom of the fermenter, and its only day three since pitching. No doubt the tap's going to get buried once the yeast trub drops on top of the grain trub, so I'll have to sort something out when it's time to rack.
So how do people avoid transferring this trub on an all-grain bill ? Would you let the trub settle then siphon from the top of your hot wort ?
For the record, I only used 600 grams Pilsener Malt and a further 200grams of steeped crystal so I'm surprised at this, but Im sure it can be easily remedied next time (when I plan to use up to 1kg of grain)
