I would siphon..

Yeah probably will end up siphoning. Guess I should stop my lazy ass shit.Comment

That is not it at all. When you have the ability and tools to improve your process, or at least reduce potential issues, and you don't, then that's just stupid.everyone is suddenly pressure transfer crazy as if ALL their beers always had oxidationComment

They also rack to closed vessels once fermentation completes/nears completion so that O2 won't be reintroduced to the beer. Just because it ferments open doesn't mean it is exposed to oxygen (especially once it finishes).Exactly. Old style breweries are still doing open fermentation. So much shit on the Internet
At least, that is my understanding of the practice.Comment

I know how O2 damages a beer after 3 weeks so I do everything I can to eliminate it when transferring to a keg. For hoppy beers I even use sodium metabisulfite in a keg filled with h2o then push it all out with CO2 before doing an enclosed transfer.Originally posted by SykomantiS View PostComment

Done and cleaned... was fun trying to juggle work and getting everything in order.. Pitched Diamond Lager.. first time I am using it, pitched at 20c and cooling towards 12c then take it from thereOriginally posted by PaBz0r View PostBusy with a Saphir Helles getting to boil with loadshedding.. funComment

At 20°C it's going to be done FAST. How much did you pitch? It's a VERY fast yeast, by far the fastest lager yeast I have ever used.Originally posted by PaBz0r View Post
And I ended up siphoning it. The "just pour it in" thing sounded great in my head but when I got to it it just seemed stupid. So I siphoned it. Worked just fine. Got a full keg and 2 x 440mls.Originally posted by Toxxyc View PostComment

Should be on 12c soon.. busy cooling, was just lazy to wait before pitching. I pitched two packets, I see they mention basically 1g a LComment

Yep, two packets are good, specially when pitched warm. Warm means the yeast has time to multiply, which they don't do if they're pitched too cold, which is why we create starters. Warm pitching is a good buffer for underpitching.Comment

i see it with so many of the YT channels I follow ... they all get sponsored some sort of pressure FV and the means to transfer and now they try to convince you to "BUY" the setup they have, and if you don't, you're the p03$

Exactly, and that's why I read so many ExBEERiments from Brulosophy - they dispelled most of the myths (which goes along with equipment) for me. I love how I can make perfectly drinkable beer with a coolerbox, a couple of buckets and a large pot.
Find whatever works for you coupled with the equipment that you have, as simple as that.Comment

I have had many an opeertuinity to purchase these fancy gadgets, they are not needed to make good beer.
