I never worry about the IBU's. It's always a decent drop.

Rate......

63.3 so should be a little bitter. But done a 93 in the past and was superb.

No need to rack it to a fermenting vessel. Fermenting for 2 weeks in the fermenting bin and leave the lid tightly closed. No idea why you rack to secondary. I never have.
