Is anyone else pissed that Thirsty has a conical and even hinted at the idea of tranferring to secondary?

I hate you and your shiny temp-controlled conical...

Yeah, but if I dump the trub that takes like, 5 minutes... who has the time? Plus, I'd have to set it up on a chair or table, since it has no stand. UGH! Can you even imagine... what am I, a peasant?

In all seriousness, dumping the trub is all well and good, but messy and you can lose some volume to both dumped beer and beer lost to deadspace. I much rather prefer to transfer to a bright tank that I can cold crash for a few days (the conical only goes so far below ambient... and it's still in the 70's here).

I'm not an elitist!

Except when it comes to statehood. But we all know that already.
