Title: Bottlers do you pour the priming trub when serving?
Post by: tesla_hv on November 12, 2009, 10:05:56 pm: I was wondering, do you pour the entire contents of bottled homebrew including the priming trub? I used to but lately have gotten to a place where I leave the trub in the bottle.

Post by: BrewArk on November 12, 2009, 11:16:26 pm: I usually decant off of the sediment. I'm flatulent enough without adding that. :-*

Post by: theoman on November 13, 2009, 12:02:13 am: It depends on the beer and my mood, but I do find myself going in the same direction as you and pouring it out less and less.

+1, clear beer in the glass is pretty. :)

Post by: ndcube on November 13, 2009, 07:05:45 am: If it's a clear beer then I'll decant the beer into the glass then swig the bottom from the bottle.

Otherwise, it's probably a 50/50 chance what I'll do.

Post by: akr71 on November 13, 2009, 09:02:10 am: Not usually, no. If I've already had a few, the pouring can get a little sloppy :-[ and when I'm camping and too cheap to buy beer, I'll just drink it right outta the bottle :o

Well, as opposed to krystalweizen. Hefe = yeast was my point.

And, as someone previously mentioned, when I don't pour the last 1/2 inch from the bottle, I usually swig it :-*

Post by: dan1076 on November 14, 2009, 09:11:48 pm: I also always decant unless it is a hefe, which reminds me I have to make another one soon.
