Hello,
I have a dark brown ale 5 g batch US 05 yeast) sitting in primary (today is day #8) I am planning to rack into secondary but I keep reading online that it is useless and unnecessary to transfer to secondary as it does not do anything to the beer (plus the risk of infection) . But I also read the beer should be separated from the trub soit does not pick up bad flavors... So which one is it now? These two pieces of information are conflicting to say the least.
I am using a bucket as my primary, I have a 5 gallon plastic carboy intended as a secondary... Plus I am planning to dry hop... So I am actually not sure what to do.
Thanks you all for your help.
