I'm looking to add a spigot to my fermenter bucket. However, I'm at a loss when it comes to the height of the install. I've seen people say to use a bottling bucket and to install 2" from the bottom. I'm looking for a good compromise between very little trub and little beer loss (I do 5.5 gallon batches but go straight to kegs, so I lose some anyeays).
I want to be able to do a couple of things with this spigot:
1. Sample for gravity readings.
2. Sample for clarity during cold crash.
3. Siphon to brite tank/keg.
Side note: has anyone tried attaching co2 to their buckets to do a transfer with the spigot?
