brewing method

[tomtyneside]

hi all,i,m a newbie on here,can anyone tell me if brewing with the grain method produces less sediment than the kit method.

Do you mean yeast sediment at the bottom of bottles?

[tomtyneside]

hi km,yes bottles and cornie keg,cheers.

i would like to transport keg to other venues,without having to worry about disturbing sediment,i,v had no luck with beer finings.

The yeast sediment is the same for extract and all grain recipes.

For kegging, cold crash your fermenter when fermentation is done (put fermenter into the refrigerator at 2C for 3 days) and then transfer to keg. If you still have sediment you could transfer to another keg with a jumper from the out of the full keg to the out a clean keg and releaseing the CO2 from the keg being filled up. Or filter it when transferring from a conical to keg or keg to keg.

Bottles are always going to have yeast in the bottle unless force carbonated and filtered.
