so is it really necessary?

No, but it does help eliminate the chance of yeasty off flavors and clear up the beer.

I just siphon it over to the 2nd tank and let sit for a week or so then bottle?

Yes, but sanitize everything first! Can't risk it getting infected with bacteria.

good news thanks for the help


BUG thanks for that info. I was probably gonna pull it too soon. So I will let it sit a few more weeks and then move over. Thanks for all the help guys. I trying to make a run at this homebrew thing. I went all out with a 3 tap co2 system, but will take it slow with the bottles for now. baby steps!
