  1. always rack to a 2ndary. It'll avoid solids in later steps.
  2. solids will clog a bottling wand. This may or may not be related to #1.
  3. be careful when cleaning bottling wands, because garbage disposals will eat the spring. This may or may not be related to #2.

I would sugest to dont bother with cleaning it for first brew. From what I heard it makes neglegable diference in taste but it is clear.

I don't bother with it and had lots of perfectly drinkable cider.
