After you have cold crashed your beer, you’ll use the bottom port to remove the trub and yeast. We recommend collecting in a sight glass or using tubing to direct into your collection vessel.
Pro Tip:
- Go extremely slow opening the bottom butterfly valve. This is done so the cone of material doesn’t collapse and allow beer to pass through
- Sealing your conical with a little bit of pressure (~5psi) will help the yeast settle and something you should do when you cold crash anyway. This will also keep oxygen from moving back into the conical.
Adding our 2" TC x Barb cap and a hose can also save you from a mess. Have the hose route to a drain or container for harvest!
