Hi Guys,
I'm on my 4th AG with BIAB and I did a couple brews on the weekend, 1 of them I managed to suck a bit of the trub after chilling. It looks I could have a litre or more in the fermenter.
Just wanted to check if this is going to cause any issues. The beer is going to have alot of dry hopping and I suspect with the yeast to settle too that what will settle on the bottom will be above the tap at the bottom of the fermenter. I might try putting something under the fv at the front to have it settle at the back as I'd prefer to be able to transfer to the keg via the tap.
I'm also thinking I might get some cheese cloth or something to put on the end of the hose to eliminate any chances of the mess at the bottom getting into the keg. Is there anything more I should do? Hoping this little mistake doesn't spoil the beer in anyway, it's fermenting well, checked it yesterday and it's bubbling away through the airlock.
Cheers!
