Pale Ale Goes Into Secondary Fermentation

Here are some shots of Jason transferring our Pale Ale into secondary fermentation. It sat in primary for almost 6 days and it will sit in secondary for about 10 days, then we'll transfer it into the keg and tap it in our new kegerator! Can't wait to try it out...it smells of yummy beerness.




It's much easier to siphon if it sits up super high like this.



Carboy's almost full!



Jason wraps the carboy with a dark fleece jacket to keep any light out.



The water in the plug on top should start bubbling soon - that means the yeast is "doing its thing". Although it won't be as active as it was during primary fermentation.
