On my last brew I snapped the lid down and used an airlock as soon as it was obvious fermentation had started. Usually I just leave the lid resting on the FV.

Racked it into a keg a week later and--hey presto--no dried yeast to clean off the inside of the FV!

Thanks for the tip Mr Gregorach and others.
