Syphon or Tap

[serum]

I use the method in that video too when I siphon, great way of doing it.

It depends on yeast as some Belgian ones are easily disturbed and come straight out the tap if I use one, whereas others don't.

I hadn't even thought about less flocculant yeast being pulled through the tap. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm still going to put a tap on the FV though, as I am fed up of syphoning.

STAINLESS STEEL RACKING CANE WITH UNIVERSAL BUCKET CLIP

This curved stainless steel racking cane is 70cm in length and includes a steel gauze tip which helps to reduce the transfer of sediment.
It is fitted with a Universal Bucket Clip to secure the cane to the side of a bucket or carboy.

It works best with 5⁄16 ID syphon tubing.

Thanks for the info. :thumb:

I've cut two 5mm high notches into end of copper tube so that it can rest on the bottom of the filter and then set the height of the clip for a standard Wilco FV (of which I have three).

Saved myself a few quid there! :thumb: :thumb:
