I am new to both brewing and winemaking, but have really enjoyed my first batch of apfelwein. I have started 2 more. One is in a better bottle, and the other in a food grade plastic bucket. I have heard these buckets (recycle #2) have oxygen permeability issues, so I was think to let it ferment and clear, then bottle age.
Is there a downside to doing the majority of aging in bottles? Is there a downside to bulk aging in a bucket?
