At a garage sale a couple years ago I found an automatic valve to do that.
It plumbs into the pressure relief port on the head and the drain. Every time
the compressor starts or stops it goes POP and spits out water from the drain.
I never see water coming out but I've got a big rust stain where it spits.

I also have a 60 gallon compressor, bolted to the floor. I added an
electrically operated valve to the drain line and plumbed it outside. I
planned on putting a timer on it that would allow the water to be
drained each night, but haven't gotten that far yet. I just have a push
button on the wall for now that I hit each time I think about it. Sure
beats getting down on the floor to clear the tank!
Peace,
Pat
