Any recommendation for trub above the spigot in the 2g Brewdemon. I brewed the Irish Chocolate Stout and ready to bottle but trub is above the spigot.

Get a book and raise the back just a bit (likely a think book just thick enough to help) then let it settle back about half a day before bottling. Not the best way but it works. It also helps it you can chill the beer which will make the trub less likely to move around too much. Chilling to about 40 should do it.

Rack quietly (no bubbling) from the primary to a bottling bucket and leave the trub behind.
This is where a second fermentor with a spigot comes in handy.

Chocolate Stout you say.... let me know how it is! Sounds interesting. And wonder if that is a problem with that brew?

It means the yeast were happy!

Thank you for the suggestions. I tried tipping it back for a day. The trub didn't budge. I ended up transferring to a second fermenter to bottle. It tasted pretty darn good right from the fermenter. Let's see what a month of conditioning does for it.
