Can you guys describe your fermentation process in detail. I am trying to figure out after I reach terminal gravity if I drop to 50-60F, rack the yeast off, leave the beer in the fermenter for a day or two (diacetyl rest) then transfer to brite tank from the bottom of the fermenter, or the racking arm? I've done it both ways, and pulling from the bottom of the cone I tend to get sediment sliding down the side of the cone and getting transferred to brite tank. Or if I transfer after pulling the yeast out of the fermenter, I leave a pile of beer at the bottom of the cone that the racking arm can't reach. Not really sure which way to do it. I'm guessing leaving a leittle beer at the bottom of the cone is better then transferring stuff over to brite tank.
Are you dropping the temp when you get close to terminal gravity, or are you just letting the yeast attenuate until it's done? My terminal gravity is always off by a point or two, and I'm not really sure how to hit it every time.
