Horizontal racking arm mounted on the fermentation tank

The purpose of a racking armin brewery equipment is to move craft beer from your fermenter_fermentation tank_unitank but leave the yeast cake and trub behind in the fermenter.
Depending on the strength of craft beer you are brewing in your beer equipment, the amount of yeast pitched and other material that makes its way into your conical of unitank(trub, hop material etc), the yeast cake bed height will vary. Below are some best practices for using our racking arm.

Start with the racking arm sideways when you fill the conical with wort and proceed with primary fermentation process.
When you’re ready to transfer your beer out of you fermenter connect a hose to your racking butterfly valve.
Slowly open the butterfly valve to see if the beer runs clean through the line, or is full of yeast.
If full of yeast, carefully loosening the tri-clamp around the racking arm and turning the arm up slightly. Re-test for yeast flow.
Repeat steps until the beer runs clean. You now know where the yeast cake bed is.
