Trub Rinse Brew #15

Last batch had a deficit of beer going from primary to secondary so I wondered what I could do to get more liquid out of the trub. It dawned on me to add water to the trub. I assume the extra frothy white sediment was the undigested rye because the more rye I add, the more white froth there was. This batch doesn't have any rye so the extra froth is not present.

The series of pics illustrate the process:
