When I bottle I'll get it just to the crown cap point. When you withdraw the wand it takes the liquid just at the 'neck' of the bottle.
@byjoshuawilliams you might have to let secondary fermentation wait a little more before bottling. Stouts definitely need at least a month to condition. Still wondering if you had a wild yeast if you are using bottled yeast to make the starter?
It's possible. I'd doubt if because the yeast was always in a sanitised bottle with a airlock but it is definitely more likely than if I'd just used the packet. As I say St Peters don't provide enough. I'll buy a tub of extra next time instead of risking it.
