Hello,
I did a search, but came up short. I just went to dump my trub from my conical (lots of dry hops in a hop bag and yeast) and it seemed like it dumped a little out, but was just pouring beer out while not doing much to the rest of the trub. I noticed the V Vessel has a yeast collector and I wonder if anyone has attempted to do something similar to it with some DIY engineering. I was thinking of using a stiff plastic bottle that I can attach to the bottom port with some sort of QD; that way you can see how much of the bottom part of your conical is trub vs beer (so you know whether you've still got a mess above the port).
Any thoughts?
In the meantime, I fashioned a way to get CO2 attached to the conical and using the brewer's hardware filter, filter the beer on the way out to the keg. Hopefully it works
