Beer Transfer Day

22 Apr 2010
The Wort has been in the primary fermentation bucket for the last seven days. It is now beer. Now it has to go into the glass carboy for another seven days.


All set up and ready to transfer the beer into the secondary fermentation (glass) carboy.


Went and got a wall paper tray. The auto siphon fits perfect in the tray for sanitizing.


Opened the primary fermentation bucket and looks like the yeast did a good job.


Siphon is going. Glass carboy is filling with five gallons of beer.



Down to the end of the transfer. The yeast cake can now be seen.


Beer transferred. All that is left is yeast cake.


The beer is now in the glass carboy, it will stay in here for seven days. Two things are going on here. One is the final fermentation is happening and second is the clearing of the beer by letting the suspended partials to fall to the bottom. On the 29th I will transfer the beer into bottles.
