I just transfered an imperial oatmeal stout to secondary. It's been a while since I've done anything in a carboy, and I noticed that the stopper keeps sliding up the lip of the carboy instead of staying snug in the neck. I'm going to the homebrew shop on Saturday, so I'll probably pick up another stopper and see if that does the trick. If that doesn't work, are there any suggestions for keeping the carboy airtight for long periods? I'm planning on leaving it in secondary for at least a few months, throw a vanilla bean in there for a week or so before bottling.
